The Curriculum
EHB Pre-Prep School is a Westminster and St Paul’s feeder, with an impressive number of 7+ and 8+ boys receiving offers each year. Our curriculum is designed to offer our boys a breadth of experience and prepare them for examinations to the highest academic standards, with each receiving an individual learning plan. The Prep takes boys at age eight and prepares them for the 11+ examination.
Games & The Arts
Sport and arts are central to our philosophy, as we want the boys to feel creative and fulfilled. PE lessons, off-site games and swimming sessions help develop key sports skills. Drama and music are popular, and there are many after-school clubs and extra-curricular trips.
Pastoral Care
Wellbeing is central to the school’s philosophy and the ‘Teachers have a lovely supportive dynamic with their charges.’ Good Schools Guide (2023). Our buddy system integrates new boys, together with a sense of community in each form and House. The Good Schools Guide (2023) says ‘Pastoral care is excellent, accommodating and proactive, picking up on any potential anxieties very quickly’.

Boys regularly receive offers to other top schools, including Westminster, St Paul’s, Westminster Cathedral Choir School, King’s College Junior School, Eaton House Belgravia Prep, the Dragon School and Summer Fields. Prep exit schools at 11+ have included Westminster Under, Dulwich College and Merchant Taylor’s School.

Mr Montague intends to maintain the traditional, academic values of Eaton House Belgravia whilst bringing a fresh eye to the school and building on the school’s existing philosophy of ‘stretch and support’.
