Facilities
Kindergarten
Starting school is an exciting milestone for both you and your daughter, so from the moment she begins her educational journey at BPS they can assure you of our commitment to providing a happy and nurturing experience in these key early years. The dedicated and experienced staff provide the best possible individual care and support for your daughter within an enriched and stimulating learning environment. The Kindergarten girls learn through a wide variety of play and creative activities. Through daily small steps, they are encouraged to develop self-assurance, independence and effective social skills. They place great value on ensuring that learning is fun, engaging and rewarding. They have high aspirations, and most of our pupils work beyond age-related expectations. They work in close partnership with the parents as they lay down the foundations for the learning journeys of the youngest members of the BPS community.
Pre-Prep
Throughout Pre-Prep, the girls are supported by a team of dedicated professionals who understand that every girl is unique. Ensuring that the girls’ experiences are rich, varied and purposeful, contributes greatly to their academic progress and personal well-being. Whilst we are understandably proud of our impressive academic record, they know that long-term success is built on broader qualities and values. For a girl to do well at school, she needs to believe in herself and persevere, even in areas she finds more challenging. They therefore, take notice of her successes and let her know they are proud of who she is. they take learning beyond the four walls of their classroom to make full use of the exceptional facilities within the school.
Prep
In Prep, subjects are taught by subject specialists and pupils move from classroom to classroom for their lessons. They are able to make use of the fantastic facilities which include two science labs, a spacious art room, a music lab, a design and technology room, as well as a large multi-purpose sports hall with an adjoining dance and drama studio.Academic standards are very high and pupils make significant steps towards a more independent style of learning. Furthermore, a commitment to the girls’ wider personal development is a touchstone of the approach to education.
