Welcome to the Papplewick website, which offers a flavour of what makes the school so special as a prep school for around 200 boys aged 6 to 13. Boys of this age have a natural spark and individuality, and these qualities are celebrated throughout their time at prep school.
Papplewick recognizes that boys thrive on high expectations and challenges, whether in the classroom, on the sports field, or in the Arts. By setting the bar high, Papplewick boys gain entry to the top UK senior schools including Eton, Harrow, Winchester, Wellington, Charterhouse, Radley, Bradfield, and Stowe.
For all these high standards, the happiness of the boys comes first. The final and most valued award on Speech Day is given to the boy who has shown the greatest enthusiasm for life, contribution to the community and, above all, kindness to others.
In an ever-changing world, Papplewick is a school where boys can still very much be boys, all within a family friendly atmosphere. The website can only give a glimpse into the exciting lives the boys lead at the school. Visitors are warmly welcomed by the headmaster, his wife Sallie, and their four children Harry, Mollie, Lily, and Archie, who look forward to showing the happiness, confidence, and spark of Papplewick boys at first hand.
