Welcome to Monmouth Prep School. A fully co-educational Prep School for boys and girls aged three to 11.

Your child’s educational journey will begin at Monmouth Prep School, where day and boarding girls and boys will thrive and flourish with inspired and engaging subject-specialist teaching delivered across two sites.

Welcome from the Head

Mr Neil Shaw, MA

At Monmouth Prep School, children are motivated to learn with a sense of fun, enjoyment and excitement, both in and out of the classroom.

The pupils’ sheer exuberance and the way they throw themselves wholeheartedly into whatever is going on is a true delight. It is a pleasure for me to continue building on Monmouth Prep School’s strengths whilst providing a happy, secure environment in which our pupils’ lives are enriched now, and for the future.

The school’s modern and contemporary teaching spaces encapsulate the very best of a traditional, independent education. Boys and girls can also immerse themselves in a breadth and range of educational opportunities, trips and expeditions, social and co-curricular events and shared community projects.

Our co-educational foundation will recognise talent and nurture excellence, providing the best possible springboard for your child’s future and allow a confident step up to our senior schools.

Our family of schools has a truly inspirational legacy of combining an excellent, traditional education with forward-thinking and innovative ideas and it is a privilege knowing that many pupils begin their journey here at Monmouth Prep School.

I hope that our website gives you an insight into our wonderful school community and the breadth of opportunities and experiences available to all our girls and boys at Monmouth Prep School.

I warmly invite you to visit us and we look forward to welcoming you and your family soon.

With warm wishes,

Neil Shaw

My child has been encouraged at every point to nurture their passions, try new things, and celebrate their strengths.
