    Preparatory School Handbook for Parents September 2020 Ages 7 - 13 years PREPARATORY SCHOOL WELCOME : WELCOME Welcome to the Dean Close Preparatory School Handbook for Parents and Guardians. The purpose of this Handbook is, above all else, to be a help to you as parents as your child embarks on their time at Dean Close Preparatory School. We count it as a wonderful privilege to be involved in the formation of young lives. The relationship which we cultivate with you is at the heart of our success and we look forward to working in close partnership with you. The Handbook does not set out to replace, but rather complement, the important personal communication which will continue throughout your child’s time with us. We hope it will come to be an important source of information. We have done all we can to make sure that most questions about policies, academic structure and our pastoral system are answered within these pages, along with the more important day to day information such as dress codes, timetables and contact details.

The wrap-around care given to each of our young boarders sets the culture throughout the Prep School, with a focus on the shared values of kindness, understanding and growing responsibility. Our aim is to provide a home-away-from-home experience, where children can enjoy a myriad of opportunity, whilst building on the many life skills discovered through community life. Three comfortable boarding houses at the Prep School ensure that children feel happy, safe and valued, as they are nurtured by their Houseparents and live-in staff.

Visitors and newcomers to the School often comment on the family atmosphere that they find here. We very much hope that your sons and daughters will benefit greatly from this ethos and as time goes on will also be able to contribute to it. This handbook is intended to give you answers to many of the detailed questions that may arise and to give you some idea of the activities and experiences that take place in School. Most importantly, it is not a substitute for conversations with all of us who are responsible for your child’s progress and you should feel most welcome to contact us at any time by telephone or email and we shall aim to arrange meetings whenever necessary. If I might give two pieces of advice at this introductory stage: - you can’t be too involved. There really is an astonishing range of excellent activities tToo d pou apnilds to see, and new ones open up each year. The people who commit to things are the ones who have the most fun and benefit the most. - it is wonderful for you to be involved as well, but please bear in mind that as your sTon psa orre ndtas ughters move on in the School they are learning to think and speak for themselves and you can often help best by giving them an opportunity to take the initiative.
