Rosemead Preparatory School

Welcome to Rosemead Preparatory School & Nursery, Dulwich, an independent co-educational day prep school for children aged 2 ½ to 11. Balance lies at the very heart of everything we do here at Rosemead Prep School. We value and place equal emphasis upon sports and the creative arts as we do upon academic excellence, immersing our girls and boys into a full, varied and stimulating school experience from Nursery all the way through to Year 6.  And through a balance of outstanding teaching, hard work, commitment to opportunity and willingness to explore new experiences, our children achieve great things.

Our school aims are at the very core of everything we do and are the reason the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) judged Rosemead Prep to be ‘Excellent’ across all areas of Educational Quality – this is the highest grade achievable. They are;

To encourage confidence from a young age, preparing children for the next stages of their own brilliant futures To meet the intellectual, physical and emotional needs of each child and embrace excellence across the curriculum To create an inclusive, nurturing community that enables children to be creative, reflective and compassionate To inspire a thirst for learning, providing opportunities that extend far beyond our curriculum To work in close partnership with our parents and the wider community Our motto, Inspiring Brilliant Futures, reflects our desire to develop a passion for learning that will enable children to aim high and achieve their goals. The school’s success is evident in our pupils’ enviable record of entry to leading senior schools locally in both the independent and maintained sectors.

Although we set the highest academic standards, we are committed to providing a well-rounded and inclusive education. With bursaries available from Year 3, we work hard to identify and nurture talents in, for example, sport, the arts or leadership and allow all children to thrive.

Outstanding pastoral support and the school’s unique status under the auspices of the Thurlow Educational Trust, of which every parent is a member, results in an exceptionally strong school community.
