Thomas’s Battersea is a vibrant, coeducational prep school for pupils aged 4-13. Children are encouraged to be curious, independent, and ambitious in their learning, while developing the resilience and confidence to embrace new challenges. Beyond the classroom, they enjoy a wide range of opportunities in competitive sport, the arts, and outdoor learning, enabling every pupil to explore their interests and discover new talents.
We take pride in preparing and nurturing our pupils, equipping them with the adaptability, empathy, and self-belief to grow into compassionate, confident, and responsible citizens of the world.
A very warm welcome to Thomas’s Battersea - a school of which the whole community and I are immensely proud.
As a school of excellence, we prepare pupils superbly both for the next stage of their education, and for their lives ahead of them. We do so with kindness at the heart of everything, and the broad curriculum encourages every child to find their something. High quality, creative teaching is the norm, and our outcomes are exceptional.
The result? We do not just produce great academics, athletes and artists; we produce great people, preparing them to be citizens of tomorrow - and we’re most proud of that.
I often speak about Thomas’s Battersea having soul. No website can fully show the true nature of a school, or do justice to the incredible community that is at work on a daily basis. I hope you will take the opportunity to visit us, and to see for yourselves what makes Thomas’s Battersea Prep School so special and so unique.
Each year, Thomas’s Battersea pupils move on to some of the UK’s top senior schools, often with scholarships and awards across academic, artistic, and sporting fields. Our 11+ Offers and our 13+ Leavers’ Destinations reports show a wide variety of schools and opportunities secured by our Year 6 and Year 8 pupils, reflecting the breadth of talent nurtured at our school.
