Queen's College Preparatory School

With its central London location, this precursor to Queen’s College is a bustling hub of energetic, exuberant and purposeful pupils exuding a friendly, charming vibe. Founded in 1848, Queen’s College was the first school in the country to provide academic qualifications for girls. The prep may be a little younger (it opened in 2002), but its warm and non-competitive atmosphere certainly echoes the ethos of its big sibling. Located a few minutes’ walk from the senior school, the pre-prep and prep occupy a grand central London townhouse. This busy prep is spread over a rabbi...

    Bursaries
    Queen’s College is keen to admit any girl who meets its academic standards, regardless of her financial situation, and a number of means-tested bursaries are available on entry at 4+, 7+, 11+ and 16+. A bursary can provide up to 100 per cent remission of fees, depending on a family’s financial circumstances (the school recently reached its target of having at least 10 per cent of all pupils on full bursaries). All of its bursaries are strictly means-tested via an independent bursary assessor, and although a scholarship will sometimes be offered alongside a bursary, the two rarely go hand in hand. The school also has an ongoing partnership with the Sarah Bonnell school in east London, and offers fully funded sixth-form places to up to four pupils each year.
