Cheltenham Prep School

A thriving school with outstanding facilities of its own as well as some of the additional resources of Cheltenham College, Cheltenham Prep really does tick all the boxes. With a very visible and engaged headmaster to boot, this impressive school is surely – in the local racing parlance – a dead cert.Not far from J11 of the M5 and a few minutes’ walk from Cheltenham town centre, the main part of Cheltenham Prep is housed in a large and very attractive Victorian red-brick building, with smaller single-storey modern additions around it.

    Bursaries
    Cheltenham College Prep offers means-tested remission of up to 100 per cent of fees, and in exceptional circumstances covering extras too. The financial review is carried out by a third party and may involve a house visit, with annual subsequent reviews. The school does note that awards of bursaries from families of children entering the early years of the Prep School or the Nursery are unusual, but not impossible.

    The college has a strong connection with the armed forces and as such offers fee remission to children from military families, ranging from 15 per cent to 25 per cent of fees depending on rank.
