UK Boarding Schools | Independent Schools | Private Schools

Bilton Grange Preparatory School is one of the foremost co-educational boarding and day preparatory schools in the country, rated as ‘Outstanding’ by the Independent Schools Inspectorate in 2007, and again ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted in 2008.

We have a thriving Pre-Preparatory Department with dedicated, well-trained staff who ensure that these most important formative years of schooling are exciting and challenging, allowing children to reach their full potential and preparing them for the next stage of their school life.

Academic life
We prepare children for 13+ entry into the country’s leading senior schools. In recent years pupils from Bilton Grange have gone on to many such schools, including Rugby, Eton, Oundle, Uppingham and Wycombe Abbey. 56 scholarships have been awarded by senior schools to Bilton Grange leavers in the last four years. We build on the proven advantages of the traditional prep school curriculum – small class sizes, a broad range of subjects, and specialist teaching staff – and learning is further enhanced by modern ICT support.
‘Powerful teaching by excellent professionals’ was how The Daily Telegraph put it.

The environment
The School offers unrivalled facilities for your child: as well as our fully resourced classrooms, science laboratories and design workshops, Bilton Grange maintains a theatre, library, music school, sports hall, 25-metre indoor heated swimming pool, nine-hole golf course, and shooting range, as well as 160 acres of sports fields, woods and landscaped gardens, all centred on our magnificent 19th-century Pugin mansion and its adjoining chapel.

The girls’ and boys’ boarding houses are at the heart of the School community. All children, boarding and day, benefit from attending this School, with its complete care systems and the dedicated staff it attracts. We offer weekly and flexible boarding, and day children are welcome to attend every meal.

Children are supported through the challenges of living, learning and growing with others by adults who value the happy and secure environment of a community based on Christian principles, encouraging courtesy and personal responsibility. We therefore strive to provide an atmosphere in which children will develop with confidence, free from fear, and safe in the knowledge that their voice will be heard.

We are proud of our accomplishments and the manner in which we achieve them together. Bilton Grange is non-selective and yet maintains the highest standards in every arena, all with a remarkable sense of relaxed informality.

Powerful teaching by excellent professionals.

Las zonas de alojamiento para chicos y chicas están en pleno centro de la comunidad del colegio. Todos los alumnos, tanto los internos como externos, se benefician deasistir a esta institución por sus completos sistemas de atención y la calidad del personal que trabaja en ella.

Ofrecemos la opción de internado de forma semanal y flexible, y los alumnos externos también tienen la posibilidad de asistir a cada una de las comidas.

Los niños se enfrentan a los retos derivados de la convivencia, el aprendizaje y el desarrollo con la ayuda de adultos que valoran el entorno feliz y seguro de una comunidad basada en los principios cristianos y que fomenta la cortesía y la responsabilidad personal. Por ello, nos esforzamos por ofrecer un ambiente en el que los niños puedan desarrollarse con confianza, sin miedos y con la seguridad de que se les escucha.

Estamos orgullosos de nuestros logros y del modo en que los hemos hecho realidad, todos unidos. Bilton Grange no es una institución selectiva y aún así consigue mantener los niveles más altos en todos los campos; todo ello con una extraordinaria sensación de informalidad y un ambiente relajado.

BILTON GRANGE PREPARATORY SCHOOL TO OFFER 100% BURSARY

Subject to the Headmaster’s discretion, the value of the bursary could rise to 105%

The Headmaster of Bilton Grange Preparatory School, in Dunchurch, Warwickshire announced today that a bursary of 100% of the school fees will be available, subject to assessment, to families of children entering the school in September 2010.  This is in addition to existing bursaries, which are available to cover a percentage of the school fees.  Families with children aged from 4 years old, who believe they would benefit from an education at the school or who might have a flair for Music, Drama, Sport or Art are encouraged to apply.
 
Furthermore, subject to the discretion of Peter Kirk, the Headmaster of Bilton Grange, this bursary may be extended to 105%, to ease the financial burden of uniform or the cost of extra curricular activities.  
 
Full details of how to apply are available in the first instance on the school’s website www.biltongrange.co.uk, or by contacting Jonathan Hewat, the School Registrar, however, candidates’ skills in certain academic subjects will be assessed, and the award will be made according to financial need through a confidential means testing process.  This will be undertaken by the Finance Manager at Bilton Grange, and will be in accordance with the Independent Schools’ Bursars’ Association guidelines.
 
Wednesday 3rd February 2010 is the closing date for bursary applications, which may be made by any family with a child over the age of 4 at any school in the country. Successful applicants will be asked to attend a bursary selection day on Saturday 6th February 2010, where academic tests and interviews will take place, together with a tour of the school and an opportunity for parents to meet school staff, current pupils and the Headmaster.
 
Peter Kirk, Headmaster of Bilton Grange commented;
 
“The announcement of this bursary underlines our commitment to children being able to realise and fulfill their potential at Bilton Grange, whatever their family’s financial circumstances. Bilton Grange is one of the few private schools in the country to offer a full fees bursary, and with a discretionary additional 5% also available, it demonstrates that we are acutely aware of the financial pressures families can be under during a child’s education.
 
“Beyond the excellent facilities, small class sizes and specialist teaching staff, I believe that a Bilton Grange education provides the best possible all round education for our pupils, whether in the classroom, the music room or on the sports pitches.  We are extremely fortunate to be able to offer this exceptional bursary to a child who would benefit from such an education, but whose family may not otherwise be able to afford it. “
