Welcome to the Prep School
We are very excited to be offering you a place at Chigwell School. We hope the information below helps to inform your decision. If you have any other questions about joining Chigwell School at 7+, get in touch with our admissions office using the contact details below.
As a school we give pupils the confidence to be themselves and to follow and develop their interests. Our teaching is excellent and our teachers are skilled not only in the classroom but also in providing the care and individual attention that the children need. Class sizes are small and this allows us to get to know the children as individuals and to adapt their education accordingly.
The curriculum is wide and evolving as we continue to adapt to the modern world. It is supported by excellent facilities, some of which we share with the Senior School. From the age of 7, our children do drama in the purpose-built Drama Centre, with their plays and assemblies in the theatre itself. They have science in the science labs with technical support, and learn their music in the Walde Music School.
