Welcome from the Head of the Prep School

We are Framlingham College Prep School, a co-educational prep school (2 – 13) set in the most outstanding rural location in Suffolk.

Lots of schools say such a thing, but I would challenge anyone to find a more picturesque rural setting for children to grow up in. We are set on a historic estate in the countryside five miles away from Framingham College Senior School, so we look and feel like a stand-alone independent prep school, but we are a through school to Framlingham College Senior School.

We offer a seamless transition up – and our own innovative curriculum – or we can prepare the pupils for some of the most notable senior schools in the country.

We are known as a school which adapts and responds to the individual child. We accept them for who they are, find out what makes them tick and encourage them to try new things, be ambitious, and find their passions.

A cursory glance at our website will show how much we do during the week and over the weekends. With our own bus network to the school, great access to Stansted and London, we have day pupils, full boarders, and flexi boarders and all can opt in to our Saturday morning Ignite Programme.

All this activity and learning requires energy and optimism from both staff and pupils, and this creates a friendly and stimulating environment within a supportive community. It is an extraordinary place to grow up.

Come and visit us to see and experience the school for yourself – I very much look forward to welcoming you.
