Igniting the spark that shapes the life

Holy Cross Preparatory is an independent school for girls aged 3–11 located on 8 acres of beautiful grounds off Kingston Hill.

At Holy Cross Prep School, you will notice immediately that we identify and nurture your daughter's talents from the very start. Our emphasis on understanding the strengths and personal make-up of each individual girl has, their parents say, become the hallmark of a Holy Cross Prep education.

'We ignite the spark that shapes the life at Holy Cross Prep, nurturing our girls to develop their curiosity, discover a love of learning and aspire to be the best they can be academically, spiritually, personally and physically.' – Sarah Hair, Headteacher

The two-form entry benefits from small class sizes and provides a warm, nurturing and stimulating environment where a dynamic, highly motivating and relevant curriculum is taught by a team of excellent teachers. The school promotes a growth mindset in STEAM subjects, empowering their girls to be responsible citizens who are confident, independent, well-rounded and fully prepared to face the challenges of any selective senior school. The dedicated teaching team ensure that high academic standards are upheld across every subject, as well as the many specialist subjects, which include sport, music, drama, computing, art and French.

Mrs Hair states 'It is of great importance to me to maintain the balance between the goal-oriented side and the formation of character and development of those life skills that do indeed last a lifetime. We recognise that the signposts for travelling along the journey of life are clearly visible even in early childhood. At Holy Cross Prep we identify strengths and talents from the very start. In short, we ignite a spark; the spark that will shape the life of your daughter.'
