    Word From The Head

    Gavin Ryan


    Welcome to Ripley Court, a leading co-educational Preparatory School for pupils aged 3-11, set in 19 acres of Surrey countryside, and the picturesque village of Ripley.

    With extensive playing fields, its own forest school and an indoor swimming pool, Ripley Court is an idyllic environment for educating our pupils, building solid foundations, and preparing them for the next stage of their education.

    At Ripley Court, we pride ourselves on having a warm, family atmosphere where exceptional pastoral care is at the heart of what we do. Our supportive and nurturing school enables pupils to fulfil their potential and become confident and independent lifelong learners who are equipped for life beyond their time at school and, indeed, the challenges of the twenty-first century. Teachers and staff contribute to the ethos of the school by developing a creative and inspiring environment, which helps our pupils to develop a lifelong thirst for learning. Furthermore, a sense of social connection is nurtured through our solid links within the community.

    We support each pupil in reaching their full potential through our broad curriculum and the wealth of extracurricular activities offered. We are incredibly proud of the pupils’ academic successes, with many Year 6 pupils obtaining scholarships to their chosen secondary schools. We also celebrate achievements in all areas of pupil learning and understand that intelligence is not just linked to academics.

    [Ripley Court School] embrace your individuality growing and developing into a young adult.  

    William, Past pupil


    The teachers are very kind. They are like trees that shelter you from a raging storm of work. We start off as little acorns, but end up as big, strong oaks and then we are all ready for secondary school.
