About

Located in a spacious 9-acre campus in the university city of Cambridge, St Faith's is the largest prep school in the city. We deliver a future-focused curriculum across a wide range of subjects which include Coding and Engineering, and subjects are taught by specialist teachers.

To assist and inspire learning, pupils at St Faith's enjoy excellent facilities, including The Hub, a dedicated STEM building complete with an observatory, Computing suites, Art and Drama studios, Music recital rooms and a multi-purpose Sports Hall.

We keep class sizes small to ensure pupils receive high levels of individual teacher focus, while pupil progress is carefully tracked and monitored, to enable teachers to tailor the education and support each pupil to fulfil their potential.

As part of the St Faith's and Leys Foundation, St Faith's pupils are offered a unique opportunity to gain early confirmation of a place at The Leys, while guidance and preparation for a wide range of senior schools is provided as part of our tailored approach to education .
