Testimonials

"Such a fantastic variety of learning experiences and opportunities at such a young age. The small class numbers and teacher ratio is excellent and really aides their rate of learning." Pre-Reception parent

"Farringtons helped me to build my confidence, especially teaching me how to write a really good cover letter to send to universities. I was constantly looking through my letter to check that I had written it correctly and making sure I was highlighting what I was strong at, utilising my strengths to the best of my ability." Previous pupil

"Farringtons is a lovely caring school with brilliant pastoral care for the children and a real family feel whilst still providing a good standard of education." Year 6 parent

"Something that is important to me is knowing that I am part of the Farringtons community and my favourite thing of all would definitely be the kindness and encouragement I get from the staff members at all times." Year 7 pupil

"The Prep School offers wonderful opportunities and learning experiences, alongside fantastic facilities. The staff are very present and approachable, and you feel like they really know your child personally." Pre-Reception parent

"I love all the trips that we have on the weekends. I enjoyed going to the cinema to watch the Matilda musical, at Christmas we went to the Elf musical, and we have been bowling – the trips on offer are amazing." Previous pupil

"Farringtons is a genuinely inclusive school where every child is encouraged to shine, whatever their interests or strengths may be. The pastoral care is exceptional—thoughtful, nurturing, and focused on the whole child, not just academics. At the same time, there are opportunities for stretch and challenge academically for my children." Year 2 parent

Farringtons stands out amongst other schools in the area for taking children with a whole range of abilities rather than simply selecting those who will do well in any environment, and I am very grateful for that. It has been a great environment for our son and has given a very strong foundation for his future.

Sixth Form parent

"The small class sizes have made a huge difference, especially because the teaching is adaptive to each child’s ability. When my son started in Reception, he was incredibly shy and would hardly speak in group settings. With encouragement and the nurturing environment at Farringtons, his confidence has grown enormously. Most recently, he even put himself forward for the school council and took on a major role in the class assembly—something I never imagined he would do. It’s been amazing to watch him come out of his shell and thrive." Year 4 parent

"It’s a small, close‑knit school with a real community feel on beautiful grounds, where every child is genuinely known as an individual. Teachers know all the children, which creates a warm and supportive environment. Children are encouraged to be themselves and are given so many opportunities to explore and develop their interests: greater‑depth maths and English, regular sports fixtures, music events, and frequent productions that everyone gets to be part of."
