Overview
Overview
Little Grange Nursery, Pre-Prep, Prep and Eaton Grange create a continuous co-educational route from age 2 to 16. The senior stage ends in Year 11, with neither boarding nor a sixth form, so pupils continue through the same community without assuming a post-GCSE extension on site.
Eaton Grange covers Years 7 to 11 with a broad subject choice, a personalised academic programme and regular pastoral support. Leadership has practical roles: senior pupils can become Heads of School or House, and Year 11 pupils may work as peer mentors. Earlier foundations include specialist teaching in French, art, design technology, music, drama and sport, expanding across the curriculum from Year 5.
The farm, arts and sport make practical activity a visible part of the week. Open days and individual tours introduce the setting; Year 1-6 applicants may have taster days and assessments, while Years 5-11 applicants follow a taster day, Admissions Day, interview and online assessment.
The defining proposition is the connected route: a real senior phase alongside farm-based activity, specialist teaching and pupil leadership, without a sixth-form continuation.
