About

Crescent School is the only independent primary school in Rugby, serving families from Warwickshire and Northamptonshire, specialising in preparing children for entry to senior schools, both state maintained and independent, at the age of 11 years. In September 2016, the Crescent School merged with the Princethorpe Foundation .

The Princethorpe Foundation is formed of three schools; Princethorpe College, Crackley Hall (including Little Crackers Nursery) and Crescent School. We share the same ethos, resources and love of learning. Crescent School is a member of the Independent Association of Preparatory Schools and the Independent Schools Association .

The first thing that strikes visitors to our school is the special sense of purpose that there is here combined with a genuinely caring and nurturing atmosphere. Every child here is unique and everyone has their place in our shared community.

If you entrust your child to our care we will nurture him/her as an individual as all the children learn about themselves, the world around them and their places in it. That nurturing, allied to good teaching, will enable your child to develop a can do attitude and to recognise that learning can be a lot of fun!
