We hope the following information is useful for you: Set in 150 acres of stunning parkland in rural West Berkshire, Elstree welcomes boys and girls aged 3-13 years. Originally founded in 1848, it moved to its current location in 1939 and opened its Pre-Prep school in 1993. It offers boarding, both flexi and weekly, from Year 4 onwards. We are a close community and pride ourselves on the very special, warm environment that has evolved since our inception, influenced largely by the family principles of Elstree School. We understand each parent’s desire for their child to feel happy and secure and consider our role in the children’s development and happiness to be a very privileged one. Our committed, energetic and enthusiastic staff look forward to working in partnership with parents throughout their child’s time at Elstree. All children are valued as individuals and are encouraged to explore and develop their talents to the full. School Life Whilst the emphasis on the academic side is vital, every child is encouraged to have a go at a very broad range of activities and all of their achievements are celebrated, whatever the field. Our teachers ensure that each child is given the opportunity to shine in many areas of school life and so develop a sense of accomplishment and personal worth. Boarding We firmly believe in the benefits of the boarding experience – it enables pupils to learn to live as part of a community; it builds up their self-confidence, independence and organisation skills; to pursue a wealth of activities and interests and to build up strong friendships.
