A warm welcome from Nik Pears, Prep School Head
 A warm welcome to all visitors. I hope you find the Kent College Prep School website a helpful resource and a good introduction to what is a truly wonderful school. Set in the heart of the beautiful Kent countryside, our 80-acre site not only affords our girls a privileged setting in which to learn, but also a beautiful, safe, environment to explore and in which to grow.
A Whole School Approach
We cater for girls rising 3 to 11 years and benefit tremendously from being part of a wider school through to 18. Many of the superb resources of the Senior School are at our disposal which means we can offer our girls a broad and balanced curriculum with a huge variety of extra-curricular activities. From your daughter's first days we are keen to ensure that our girls and their families become part of the KC community and feel a real sense of belonging to the school as a whole.
ISI Inspection
The findings of our 2016 ISI inspection reported that from the EYFS onwards, pupils' achievement is excellent and they attain high standards in their work. Academic standards here are high, opportunities for sports and the creative arts abound, and above all the well-being of our pupils is priority one. As a Growth Mindset School, my colleagues and I help girls to understand that their intelligence is not fixed and when opportunity meets hard work and focused effort, the possibilities of what can be achieved are endless. We are mindful to teach our girls that taking risk and making mistakes are an integral part of the process of learning.
