Kingswood Preparatory School

Word From The Head

Mark Brearey

"Kingswood Prep School (KPS) is situated on a magnificent 100-acre site in Lansdown, Bath, a short distance from Kingswood Senior School.

It very much embodies a countryside atmosphere, with open fields and plenty of space for the children to explore. However, it is only a short walk from the stunning city centre and all the amenities on offer. A family-friendly day and boarding school, Kingswood balances academic rigour and real objectives for all pupils with the outstanding pastoral care for which Kingswood is known. Many parents comment on the School’s kind and nurturing environment, the absence of pretension and how happy their children are to attend.

Kingswood Prep School is firmly based on Christian principles, and we believe in John Wesley’s vision for community and education at the heart of all we do. We aim to foster positive attitudes and a ‘can-do’ mindset by encouraging children to explore a balanced and holistic curriculum. Our excellent staff want all of our pupils to feel good about their learning and to be confident about who they are. Believing in yourself while still being kind to others is a key ingredient of a KPS education.


Please do come and see Kingswood Prep School for yourselves – it truly offers a wonderful education for young people. I am sure you will be able to feel the energy and vibrancy as soon as you walk through the door.

I really can’t wait to meet you and your family – please do get in touch."
