The Granville School leads the field in providing an independent pre-school education for girls and boys aged 3-4 and a prep education for girls aged 4-11 that is aspirational, future-facing, relevant and engenders success in all aspects of school life, while still upholding the best of prep school tradition.
Our pupils achieve excellent results without compromising the breadth of their education. From Pre-School upwards our pupils benefit from specialist, inspirational and expert teaching from practitioners who are leaders in their fields. We also enjoy an outstanding reputation for Drama, Art and Music and our impressive results, in a range of sports speak for themselves.
Despite being non-selective, boys from our pre-school move on to prestigious schools and Granville girls obtain outstanding results in the Kent 11+ grammar test and in entrance exams to sought-after senior schools. Our scholarship record is unrivalled locally. All pupils make excellent progress from their own starting point.
We attribute this success to our focus on the individual and our commitment to ensuring that every child learns, no matter where they are their personal learning journey. The individual attention we offer our pupils gives them confidence, self-belief and the courage to try new things and find their passion.
A Granville education develops our pupils into confident, kind and courteous members of the community who are resilient, ambitious and successful. Our younger pupils admire our senior pupils as strong role models who demonstrate leadership skills and undertake their responsibilities with commitment and care.
