At Madingley
Every child is special
and
Every child is different
Where we are?
Madingley Pre-Preparatory School is an independent school based in an original Victorian Village School in the historic village of Madingley, near Cambridge. Two additional modern classrooms have been added to the original building.
We are 3 miles from Cambridge in a beautiful rural location.
Who are we?
Penelope and Michael Evans established Madingley Pre-Preparatory School in 1997. Both Penelope and Michael were head teachers in Cambridgeshire and have many years experience both in independent schools and state schools.
Penelope is Head Teacher, whilst their daughter Charlotte is Deputy Head and administration is handled by Michael – a real family school.
What do we do?
Madingley has four classes, from Kindergarten to Year 2. Each class is run by a highly qualified teacher with plenty of classroom assistance.
We have specialist part time teachers for subjects such as French, Music and Needlework.
Our aim is to prepare every child for their next school, whether it is an independent school or a state school.
What do we teach?
Madingley follows a broad based curriculum in line with the National Curriculum for England and Wales. In addition all children are taught French.
Children receive individual attention in small classes and follow carefully planned activities that promote curiosity and establish sound principles of learning.
We place our emphasis on the basic skills of Speaking, Listening, Reading, Writing and Mathematics. Science, History and Geography are taught through topics. Art and Craft, Dance, Physical Education and Information Technology are important areas of learning throughout the school.
Can my child attend Madingley?
Entry to Madingley is by interview and following consideration of the child’s previous record, not a written examination.
What about parents?
At Madingley we are proud of our open-door policy and believe in a home-school partnership.
What has Ofsted said?
Madingley has received excellent reports on each inspection.
