ISI report
We are thrilled and delighted that following our 2023 ISI inspection, the school has been awarded the highest possible grading. To be awarded “Excellent” in both categories of the quality of pupils’ academic and other achievements, and the quality of pupils’ personal development is something to be extremely proud of. I am particularly pleased that the report reflects what we see from our children every day at Prestfelde. Pupils are achieving highly across so many areas of school life; they are happy, caring and love learning. The dedication and expertise of our teaching staff, along with the attention to detail and professionalism of our support staff has been a key factor in achieving these grades, as well as ensuring that the School is fully compliant in all regulatory areas. This report recognises the work of our wonderful community, whilst providing a springboard for the future. Alongside our 2029 Centenary Strategy, this will ensure that Prestfelde retains its position as a UK leading independent prep school.
