Upton House is a thriving co-educational school for boys and girls aged 2 up to 11 years. Self-esteem and happiness, we believe, are paramount to each child’s success and we pride ourselves on developing confident and happy children with a love of learning.
With high academic standards, high calibre staff and excellent pastoral care, Upton House children blossom and have a zest for life, continually learning and developing their abilities, interests and talents within a caring and supportive environment. We encourage children to accept challenges in a very nurturing atmosphere. Upton teaches children to thrive in the modern world and we invite our students to think outside the box.
Building on the success of our mixed Early Years and Pre-Prep schools, the Prep school has moved to be fully co-ed and boys can stay until Form 6. Our ethos and values remain the same. We offer a personalised education, and our children are capable, confident and kind individuals when they leave the school. Boys as well as girls sit exams for secondary schools while at Upton. We think our unique personalised approach to prepare each pupil for the secondary school of their choice will be very beneficial for the boys. We have a 98% acceptance rate for girls and 30% scholarships offers and we aspire to achieve the same for the boys. Our children progress to their next schools as confident, successful and independent individuals.

Back in March 2020, we launched UptonHouse@Home, our bespoke online learning experience which was designed to bring the continuity of Upton curriculum and community to our pupils at home, so our children continued to excel even when they couldn't be in school.
Our Upton content was redesigned for digital consumption, delivered by our creative, caring and trusted Upton team. We provided uninterrupted education and emotional development to our children, with all teachers delivering their full timetable virtually.
Please join our next online open morning or come for a personal tour, by appointment only. My Senior Team and I would be very happy to meet you and you can be assured of a warm welcome. Upton House really is an exceptional place full of wonderful opportunities for every child.
