Welcome to Parkside School. It is my privilege, as headmaster, to lead the experienced and skilled team of teachers, tutors and support staff, whose efforts have turned Parkside into the highly successful and friendly school it is today.

We seek to develop children academically, socially and physically, while drawing out their capacity for compassion, generosity and understanding. This is largely achieved by staff and senior pupils modelling these qualities themselves to the younger ones.

It is important that we create the right environment for each age group:

• In our co-educational nursery, we provide a caring environment for boys and girls aged 2½ to 4 years and prepare them for school
• In the pre-prep years (ages 4 to 7 years), we help the boys to get to grips with learning, enjoy being together and develop mutual respect
• At the prep school itself (ages 7 to 13 years), we are very much preparing the boys for life

This website can only whet your appetite; to understand what Parkside can offer, I invite you to come and see us in action. Please call us for an appointment on 01932 862749, complete our response form (coming soon) or visit our next open day.
