St Cedd’s School is a co-educational 3-11 Charitable Trust School offering pupils the opportunity to aspire and achieve in a caring environment that nurtures talent and supports individual endeavour. This is a school in which every child matters. We value and celebrate their many diverse talents and qualities, and the grounded confidence the pupils develop results in great personal achievement.
The Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) placed St Cedd’s School at the top level in every category of inspection in March 2022, when we were last inspected, which places the school amongst the very best 3-11 preparatory schools in the country. The accolade confirms what we witness every day: high academic achievement, outstanding records of attainment in music, an inclusive sporting ethos and successes at national tournaments, a sense of purpose and ambition that shows itself in the attitude and actions of the pupils and staff, and a very effective pastoral care system.
PE, music, art, French and science are taught by specialists with the teaching of PE, music and French starting in the Pre-School. Acknowledging the breadth of talents of pupils is an important aspect of life at St Cedd’s School.
