Welcome to Prep
Finding the perfect learning environment for your child is about more than academic success – it is about discovering a place where they feel supported, encouraged and understood.
Within the Prep department at Bridgewater School, we combine academic excellence with a warm and nurturing ethos that prioritises kindness, inclusivity and personal growth. It is an environment where children instinctively feel at home, and where they can thrive as confident and compassionate individuals.
