The Children’s House School is a well-established nursery and preparatory school in Islington, North London, currently welcoming children from 2.5 to10 years of age (Year 5).

The School is on two sites: the Nursery and Pre-Reception based at Elmore Street, and the Upper School on King Henry's Walk, housing Reception to Year 5.  The sites are a 20 minute walk or 10 minute bus ride apart.  

For many years, the school was a pre-prep, finishing at Year 2, but following demand from parents, we embarked on an expansion project.  Next September we will welcome our first Year 6 class and Reception will move over to Elmore St, which will become our dedicated Early Years Centre.   This is a very exciting time to be joining the school, and every member of staff is invited to play an instrumental role in our first few years as a full primary school. 

Our ethos is simple: We want each child to reach their full potential in a happy and nurturing environment, taught by excellent teachers. We value creativity and our thematic curriculum promotes the creation of links between subjects, so that children's learning is deeper and contextual.  Though we are non selective on entry, we consistently achieve excellent academic results across all abilities through our unwavering dedication to each child and their individual learning style and needs.

Pupils are prepared for 11+ entry to a variety of London day schools, and the inclusion of drama, Philosophy for Children as well as Verbal and Non Verbal Reasoning into our curriculum, supports this, alongside a focus on stretch and challenge, and support to those pupils who need it. 

Our community is warm and friendly. Parents are closely involved in their children's education, and our open door policy promotes regular communication and collaboration.  As a one form entry school with a small team. teachers and TAs work closely together, supporting one another and united by a shared purpose, driving toward collective success.
