A leading independent day and boarding school near Kirkby Lonsdale
for boys from 3-11 years and girls from 3-18 years

Prep School

 

Situated in a beautiful rural location in the Lune Valley, Casterton Preparatory School offers the ideal early years and primary education for girls and boys from 3 – 11 years. 

Each child is known and valued. The dedicated staff spend time and effort ensuring each child reaches their potential. The strong work ethic and the focus on independent learning ensure the children have the necessary skills to flourish.

We offer a challenging curriculum that progresses as the child moves through school, but which also responds to the needs of each child. Children develop confidence, excellent working habits and a good sense of self respect as well as a respect for others. 

Parents comment that they are impressed with the outstanding facilities, wide range of art, music, sport and other extra-curricular activities, small classes and modern boarding accommodation. More importantly, visitors are struck by the positive and enthusiastic atmosphere which motivates and encourages the children to excel.

We prepare girls for entry to Casterton School at 11+ and boys at 11+ to a variety of destinations including Aysgarth and local grammar schools.

Do contact me to arrange a visit. You will be assured of a very warm welcome.

Mrs Helen Dootson
Acting Head, Casterton Prep School
