Free to be Me at Bansted Prep
At Banstead Prep our focus is on joyful, future-ready learning where every child is Free to be Me – confident, curious and celebrated for who they are. We blend strong academic foundations with life skills, creativity, problem-solving and character development so children can thrive at school and beyond. The nurturing environment means your child is known, supported and inspired to explore their strengths with specialist teachers, engaging lessons and plenty of opportunities in sport, arts, languages and more. Our broad, modern curriculum prepares pupils with the skills they’ll need for tomorrow, while encouraging independence and resilience.
Families are warmly invited to visit us so you can see this in action and meet staff and children. Applications are now open for September 2026 entry – it’s a great time to find out if Banstead Prep feels right for your family.

An Independent Education Rooted in Confidence and Care
Longacre School, a thriving co-educational preparatory school in Surrey, is proud to have been recognised in its latest ISI report for the quality of its education and the strength of its pastoral care. The report highlights pupils’ excellent attitudes to learning, strong personal development, and the supportive relationships that underpin school life.
Inspectors noted how pupils develop confidence, independence and resilience from an early age, supported by a broad and balanced curriculum that values academic progress alongside creativity, wellbeing and character. Teaching was praised for engaging pupils effectively, while the school’s nurturing environment enables children to feel happy, secure and motivated.
Families considering an independent education are warmly invited to visit Longacre to experience the school in action. Tours and Open Mornings offer the opportunity to meet staff, explore the grounds and see learning come to life.
