Are you looking for a Reception place for your child?
Ryde School is the leading independent day and boarding school on the Isle of Wight for children aged two and a half to 18-years-old.
Information event
Later this month (28th and 29th April) Ryde School will be hosting two Open Mornings, where you’ll be able to find out what Pre-Prep and Prep have to offer your child.
Both mornings (10am to noon) consist of tours of the schools and a chance to talk to teachers and pupils. Some light refreshments will also be served.
Warm, caring and nurturing
With the wellbeing of each and every child at the heart of the school, the learning environment at Ryde School is warm, caring and nurturing and the pastoral care is excellent.
Independent, happy and resilient learners
Ryde School aims to ensure children grow to become independent, confident, happy and resilient learners. Teachers aim high and want pupils to succeed.
Small classes, taught by a team of dedicated and highly qualified teaching staff, ensure each child is known individually and plans are built appropriately.
Passions and talents are supported and nurtured, and the aim is that every child is able to achieve their full potential.
Wide-ranging extra-curricular programme
At the heart of a school day is a traditional academic curriculum, enriched with an introduction to Spanish, Mandarin and Latin and a wide-ranging extra-curricular programme.
Alongside the vibrant academic ‘Creative Curriculum’, Pre-Prep children spend time immersed in nature, learning skills invaluable to their wider development, broadening their learning, building confidence and fostering their natural desire to learn and enquire.
Opportunities for outside learning, on the water, on the beach, in the forest or rambling through the extensive grounds, all provide an inspirational environment for children to develop lifelong skills.
Big ideas curriculum
The new Hive and Lego studio in Prep, alongside the recently introduced ‘Big Ideas’ enhanced curriculum and 1:1 ChromeBook programme have proven very successful.
Whilst on the tour, you’ll be able to hear more about these new and exciting programmes.
Benefits of team sports
Ryde School actively encourages pupils to participate in team sports – both competitively and for recreation and many of the older children in Prep play for Island clubs.
A wide range of extra-curricular activities aims to broaden young minds and pupils regularly compete in drama and music competitions, public speaking, maths challenges and art and design competitions.
Community-minded
All pupils follow the school motto of ‘Ut Prosim’, to be of service, through community service initiatives and charity fund-raising to help build an awareness of the outside world and its influences.
Much more than just a wonderful place to learn and develop, Ryde School has options to help busy family lives and offer breakfast and supper clubs for children in both the Pre-Prep and Prep and boarding options for children from Year 6.
Academic Scholarships and bursaries are also available for children entering Year 5.
