Strong Demand for Places at KES Prep as Year 5 Reaches Capacity

King Edward VI Preparatory School (KES Prep) is delighted to announce that its Year 5 cohort is now full, with a waiting list in operation for this year group from this point forward. This milestone is a reflection of the school’s growing reputation for excellence and the increasing demand for places within its nurturing, values-led community.

At KES Prep, childhood is celebrated as a unique and formative stage of life. The school is committed to supporting and nurturing every child so they flourish — not only in their academic learning, but also in their interests, relationships, and emotional development. Pupils are encouraged to exceed their own expectations and grow in confidence, curiosity, and kindness.

A key part of the KES Prep journey is the seamless transition to King Edward VI Senior School in Southampton, supported through the Head’s recommendation process. This direct pathway provides families with continuity and the assurance of a well-established route into one of the region’s most respected senior schools.

While Year 5 is now full, there remains limited availability in some other year groups. Families who are interested in learning more about the school and what makes KES Prep such an exceptional foundation for life are warmly encouraged to get in touch.
