Located within the heart of Shrewsbury, our preparatory school is fortunate to have a beautiful location with facilities that parallel those of many senior schools. The stunning 30 acre parkland site is home to a beautiful mixture of Victorian architecture, modern purpose-built teaching facilities, outdoor play areas and extensive sports grounds.

Surroundings to Inspire 

Our Shrewsbury private school is situated in this historic town, surrounded by its rich cultural and historical legacy. The area is known for being the birthplace of Charles Darwin whose enquiring mind, tenacity and intellectual rigour changed the way we think about the world.

There is a long and illustrious history in Shrewsbury, and it was the early capital of the Kingdom of Powys, a Welsh successor state in the Middle Ages.
