Nestled within 65 acres of stunning Oxfordshire countryside, The Oratory Prep School is a place where children flourish, their happiness and success always at the heart of everything we do. Our pupils benefit from an exceptional education enriched by first-class facilities, but what truly sets us apart is the spirit of curiosity, creativity and care that permeates our school.
“How can you say, ‘The sky’s the limit’ when there are footsteps on the moon?”
This quote perfectly captures the essence of education at The Oratory Prep School. Every child is unique, with their own talents and potential. Our mission is to nurture and develop these qualities by encouraging each pupil to embrace challenges, cultivate their passions and dream without limits.
We take immense pride in the breadth of opportunities we offer. From the classroom to the rugby pitch, from chorister rehearsals to drama performances, our pupils thrive in an environment where their emotional and social wellbeing is as carefully nurtured as their intellectual growth. Our dynamic co-curricular programme enriches their experience, building confidence and character along the way.
Our scholarship success is a testament to the dedication of our entire school community. However, I believe education is far more than just academic achievement. It is about preparing children for an ever-changing world while ensuring they delight in every step of their journey. At The Oratory Prep School, learning is as much about igniting curiosity and fostering resilience as it is about inspiring excellence.
At the heart of it all is our dedicated staff team who work tirelessly to inspire every child to aim high and dream big. Together we ensure that the aspirations of today become the achievements of tomorrow.
I look forward to welcoming you to The Oratory Prep School community and partnering with you on your child’s extraordinary journey.
Mr Andrew De Silva
