Welcome

Situated in Jesmond, Newcastle Preparatory School is the only independent, non-attached, preparatory school in the Tyneside area and specialises in the education of children from 3 - 11 years of age.

We endeavour to provide a warm, caring environment in which children experience success, both academic and extra-curricular, whilst growing in confidence and self-esteem. We ensure that NPS children receive the best start in life enabling them to thrive in Senior School and beyond.

The main aims of NPS are as follows:
To create a friendly, caring community where every individual is valued.
To encourage pupils to reach their full potential in all aspects of life.
To work in partnership with parents, nurturing and leading pupils towards a lifelong love of learning.

For those who do not know NPS we hope this site will give you a brief glimpse of life at our school. However, no website can convey a true impression and we would love to welcome you on a visit where you can meet our fantastic children and staff with our Head Teacher Margaret Coates.

Children come to NPS from all corners of the region. At present we have children with us from Jesmond, Gosforth, Heaton, Fenham, Forest Hall, Gateshead, Ponteland, Whitley Bay, Tynemouth, Hebburn, Hexham and some from even further afield! For more information about getting to NPS please click on the 'Travelling to NPS' link on the menu.

For those who know NPS as parents or pupils, past and present we hope this site will keep you up to date with some of the latest news and developments at the school.
