PRE-PREP
Pre-Prep Department (Reception, Years 1 & 2) The Pre-Prep is where boys build the foundation for their futures. At St John’s we make their introduction to more formal learning enjoyable and stimulating. Good manners, independence and high standards of behaviour are reinforced. Learning in Reception is based on the Early Years Foundation Stage and boys in Years 1 and 2 follow a curriculum including Mathematics, English, Science, History, Geography, Computing, Art and Design. The central person in the childrens’ life is their class teacher, supported by a teaching assistant. They have specialist staff for Music, Physical Education, Games and Swimming and get an early introduction to team sports and on- stage performances. The Pre-Prep offers bright and attractive classrooms and abundant play areas in a modern, secure, purpose built development allowing the boys room for growth and discovery, both indoors and out. We take full advantage of our extensive grounds which allow the boys to explore and learn independently. A variety of after school clubs are available for boys from Year 1 and there is a range of educational trips including a Year 2 residential trip and workshops for all the boys to enjoy.
The Pre-Prep has fostered a passion for learning in our boys while providing a nurturing and supportive environment. Overall, a perfect introduction to school life. Year 2 parent
