About the school
A very warm welcome to St Peter’s Prep School. Nestled between the coast and moorland, but within 15 minutes of the buzzing city of Exeter, St Peter’s sits in a prime location in Lympstone, Devon, overlooking the Exe Estuary.
As you travel down the long drive to the beautiful classic building and grounds of Harefield House you are instructed to ‘Enjoy The View’ and it is this open vista which, some say, characterises the ethos of the school. Open view, open minds. This forward-thinking school embraces an aspiring and positive attitude to learning whilst still instilling the core values of a traditional prep school: courtesy, consideration and common sense.
It is always best to come and see what we do firsthand, to get a feel for the school, and I invite you warmly to come and visit, meet the staff and pupils and see for yourselves why the school is so special.
Age range
3–13 years. Ask the school about entry points and the age range of its prep division.
Plan a visit
Seeing the school in person can help you decide. Ask about open days and individual visits.
