About Repton Preparatory School
The story of the foundation of Repton School lies not only in the generosity of one man, Sir John Port, but in every pupil who has passed through the Arch.
As a pre-eminent co-educational boarding and day school in the heart of England, Repton provides an exceptional broad-based education, blending heritage with the pursuit of excellence in a 21st century context, offering world class facilities as well as high quality teaching and pastoral care.
Academic standards are high and because most of our teachers, tutors and coaches are based in the village, Reptonians never have to prioritise academic achievement over their love of the theatre or rank their aptitude for sport above their passion for music.
