About St Peter's Preparatory School

St Peter’s School is an independent preparatory day and weekly boarding school for around 290 girls and boys between the ages of 3 and 13. Set in 28 beautiful acres overlooking the Exe Estuary, we offer a full and broad curriculum right from the start.  We pride ourselves on our excellent pastoral care, experienced and committed teaching staff and small class sizes.

Our Early Years education is second to none, teaching our youngest pupils to learn through play, and we participate in the government funding scheme. We offer Academic, Music, Art, All-Rounder and Sports scholarships at Year 6. Our pupils gain places to top independent senior schools when they leave us.

We offer weekly and flexi boarding for children aged 7 to 13 in a Boarding House which is a home from home, with a warm family atmosphere.

St Peter’s operates five bus services covering Exeter, East Devon and The Teign Valley.  We use our own 9-seater Tourneos and 17-seater vehicles and they are driven by St Peter’s employees.

St Peter’s School was last inspected by ISI in March 2020.  A copy of the inspection report can be downloaded from www.isi.net.
