About

Welcome to Sevenoaks Prep, a co-educational, day Prep school for boys and girls aged 2 to 13 in Sevenoaks, Kent. Set in 25 acres bordering Knole Park, we place great value on giving pupils the opportunity to flourish in all areas of school life.

They achieve excellent academic results in 11+ and 13+ examinations and scholarships, yet we are much more than a place of preparation for examinations to destination schools. We provide a nurturing environment in which children can discover and develop their talents. Pre-Prep is from Nursery at 2 years old until Year 2. From Year 3 to Year 8, pupils are in our Prep school.

We pride ourselves on being a very friendly community. Underpinning the school's success is our 'Way of Life' – an ethos that encourages pupils to be responsible, kind and empathetic.

In the school’s own words, from the school website.
