School Information

Loreto Preparatory School is a Catholic independent primary school for girls aged 3 to 11 years which is under the trusteeship of the Loreto Sisters. The Loreto Sisters are a worldwide network, with schools in most continents. The foundress of the order was Mary Ward, a Yorkshire woman of great vision who, in the late 16th century, believed in education for girls! Her teaching was based firmly on the Gospel values and she upheld the principles of Truth, Justice, Sincerity, Freedom and Joy, which we recognise in our Mission Statement. The aim of Loreto Preparatory School is to provide a broad and balanced curriculum to enable all our children to reach their full potential. The curriculum will give pupils experience in linguistic, mathematical, scientific, technological, human and social, physical, aesthetic and creative education. In our school, academic excellence is highly valued. Excellence is never an accident; it is the result of high expectation, sincere effort, intelligent direction and skilful execution. It represents the wise choice of many alternatives by Governors and staff.
