Sherborne Preparatory School
Furthermore, Sherborne Preparatory School is one of the leading preparatory schools in southwest England in terms of education quality. The curriculum is aimed at meeting children's cognitive needs, not just at achieving high exam scores.
It is important to properly educate children of all ages, to develop most of their abilities, so that in secondary school they are confident, independent children who love learning.
Main goals of Sherborne Preparatory School:
• educate the whole child; discover and develop each child's abilities both in lessons and through extracurricular activities;
• help each child realize their potential through high learning standards set for all;
• follow a curriculum that matches the breadth and depth of children's abilities;
• emphasize learning rather than "cramming";
• use a variety of teaching styles and methods (group work, pair work, independent work, whole-class work, creativity, excursions, computer-based learning, discussions, role-playing, oral presentations), taking into account social and emotional factors;
• reasonably combine innovation with the best of established practice and traditions;
• develop a sense of self-awareness and the importance of creating and strengthening good, positive relationships with others;
• develop inner resilience and independence in students;
• raise responsible, kind and happy adults.
Curriculum:
• provides linguistic, mathematical, scientific, social, physical, aesthetic and creative education;
• strengthens links between subjects and consolidates knowledge;

Teachers continuously assess the development of each pupil both individually and at meetings held twice a year. The results of the analysis of children's achievements are sent to parents in writing, in the form of reports, or conveyed orally during parent evenings, as in many schools in the UK.
