Peregrines Pre-Prep School

Falcons School for Girls is opening Peregrines Pre-Prep School, providing co-ed education from 3 to 8

WE ARE FAMILY

Exciting developments are ahead for siblings and new families at Falcons School for Girls in Putney. From September 2017, boys can join Peregrines Pre-Prep, an independent school for boys and girls age three to eight years old located within Falcons School for Girls. A fully co-educational Reception class, open to all, will begin in September 2018.

Creating a family-centred collection of schools, the Alpha Plus Group prides itself on its Gold Standard of Education, which marries a culture of high aspirations and expectations for all pupils and staff with a robust governance process that supports outstanding leadership and effective resource management at all levels.

Falcons School for Girls readily embraces this philosophy and Peregrines Pre-Prep provides an environment that promotes educational excellence and tradition through a forward-thinking, holistic curriculum within which the needs of individual pupils are fostered. As part of Falcons School for Girls, it shares the same ethos and values, summed up in the phrase, ‘Cherishing, challenging and creative’.

Headmistress Sophia Ashworth Jones says: “We have high expectations of the entire community. From the very beginning of their time with us, we teach the children to love learning. They quickly settle into school life, grow in self-confidence and learn to work and play as a member of a group. Reaching far beyond the national curriculum, we strive to strengthen and enhance our pupils’ learning through carefully planned lessons and activities.

“PEREGRINES PRE-PREP PROMOTES EDUCATIONAL EXCELLENCE & TRADITION”

We have very clear academic goals – our girls have achieved an outstanding history of 11+ results making our school’s reputation enviable in this area.”

While the school prides itself on outstanding exit results, with girls gaining entry to schools such as Francis Holland, Godolphin & Latymer, Harrodian, Ibstock Place, St Paul’s Girls’ School and Wycombe Abbey, creativity and life-long learning is celebrated, reflected in the wealth of experience of Mrs Ashworth Jones. Her passion for sciences and performing arts means that she is as likely to be in the laboratory with the Year 6 pupils as on the stage with the Pre-Reception group.

Physical education at Peregrines is not only a vital subject within the national curriculum, but also integral to the development of a healthy and happy life. Peregrines pupils enjoy superb facilities: the school is housed in four Edwardian houses within the leafy Conservation Area of Putney Park and always resonates with laughter. Each of the buildings has its own outside playground and additional sporting activities take place at Barn Elms Sports Ground and Putney Lawn Tennis club, as well as sports day at Bank of England playing fields.
