We welcome children aged 2-7 to King's Ely Pre-Prep, where the spirit of childhood is cherished and the journey from young learner to student is abundant with opportunity, experience, and challenge. 

Our days begin at Acremont House with purpose and pride. A glorious symphony of chatter and laughter fills every room as children welcome one another to the start of a new day.

Children make their way to lessons, music enrichment sessions, lunchtime clubs and our purpose-built outdoor learning space – The Roundhouse.

Learning is an adventure in our school, where small class sizes, well-qualified and caring staff and excellent teaching enable children from the age of two to reach their full potential.
