About Gidea Park Preparatory School and Nursery
The school has an enviable academic record and a long tradition of sending pupils to grammar and selective independent schools. But there is a great deal more to Gidea Park Prep than just academic success. We are a preparatory school at heart; we aim to provide all our pupils with the skills and experiences they need to gain entry to their chosen senior schools and thrive once they get there.
I was recently interviewed by a local newspaper and was delighted to share our prep school journey and transformation over the past three years. The article can be viewed using the link below.
