Welcome to Littlegarth, a happy, friendly, caring, and forward-thinking private school where children between the ages of 2 and 11 begin their exciting journey of discovery.

Littlegarth is a truly amazing school where children of all ages flourish in our safe, friendly, and happy environment. We pride ourselves on knowing each and every child as an individual and helping them to find their own passions and interests through our broad and detailed curriculum and extra-curricular opportunities. Our fantastic rural setting in the beautiful countryside, along with our superb facilities give children the freedom, space, and opportunity to flourish in many areas, whether academic or other, enjoy every day to the maximum and become confident, well-balanced individuals.

Children have access to excellent facilities for sport, art, Science, design technology, cookery, ICT, Forest School, music and drama. Specialist teaching ensures they are given every opportunity to achieve the highest levels in these and many other activities.

Our staff are highly qualified and second-to-none; they genuinely go the extra mile to support and challenge your child to be the best they can be. Class and form teachers build honest and close relationships with you as parents so that you are very much part of your child's journey through the school. Much advice is then on hand as you take the next step to secondary school too.

Our children are highly successful at gaining grammar school places and scholarships to independent senior schools. In the past two years, they have received over 100 scholarship offers encompassing academic scholarships sports, Performing Arts, Creative Arts and STEAM. Since 2023 the school has also celebrated multiple national successes with awards in Sports, Performing Arts, STEAM, public speaking and e-Sports.

Littlegarth, although Christian in foundation, is non-denominational and welcomes children and staff of all faiths, or none. Our range of opportunities, our specialist teaching, our small class sizes and excellent pastoral care make us a leading Prep School in the area and a first choice for parents.
