Devonshire House is a prep and pre-prep school located in Hampstead. We are committed to making it our mission to promote resilience and positive wellbeing for all our pupils and staff and we are dedicated to the highest academic standards, where all pupils achieve their full potential.
Devonshire House School provides an excellent education for pupils from nursery age though to their Common Entrance exams for senior schools and we understand that the wellbeing of our pupils is essential for their success. We seek to ensure that Devonshire House is a safe, warm and happy place that provides interest, challenge, encouragement and understanding at every stage.
We ensure that the school community understands that mental health is ‘everyone’s business’ and we strive to create an environment that has a whole school approach in providing excellent mental health support whilst developing enthusiasm, initiative and a strong sense of personal responsibility.
It is through these things that good self-esteem and confidence are built and it is with these that come generosity of spirit and fulfilment in life. Devonshire House Prep School is situated in the heart of Hampstead. The School has fine Victorian premises with charming grounds and walled gardens.
Children join our school in the Oak Tree Nursery (ages 2½ – 3½) which is based at 6 Arkwright Road. The Nursery team work together following the Key Person system. The key person is there to help support parents as their child takes their first steps in education and to ensure that each child feel safe and secure.
The Pre-Reception and Reception (ages 3-5), are in 4 Arkwright Road. Every class has a teacher and an assistant. All the children follow the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum, with PE, French and Music being taught by specialist teachers. Junior School pupils, age 5 – 8, (Years 1 to 3), are taught just around the corner at 69 Fitzjohn’s Avenue. Here they make tremendous progress, following a full curriculum, with specialist teachers for Games, ICT, Music and French.
The Upper School pupils, age 8 -13 , (Years 4 – 8), are taught in other buildings on the Arkwright Road school site. They have a full range of specialist subject teachers, including Art, Design, Technology, Science and Latin. In this environment they develop the necessary knowledge and skills to pass into a large range of London Day Schools and Boarding Schools.
