"For 125 years, the royal blue uniform of Leicester Prep School (Stoneygate College), Leicester's oldest prep school, has been synonymous with the highest quality of traditional academic excellence.

Our school is a small, family friendly school, housed in one building, for boys and girls of ages 3 to 11 years. The school was founded in 1886 and over the years has developed an enviable reputation for providing a happy family atmosphere and excellent academic results. Our children acquire a love of learning and achieve academic success without the feeling of being pressurised into succeeding. The school is situated in the heart of the desirable Stoneygate area of Leicester, on the south side of the city, close to the University and hospitals and within a few minutes of the city centre. 

Choosing the right school for any child is a difficult and major decision. So many factors are involved, but academic success and the "feel" of the school should be top of the list. The atmosphere is open and friendly and we encourage children to develop their self-confidence by introducing them to a broad curriculum incorporating traditional values and modern teaching methods. Our curriculum stretches well beyond national guidelines and is designed to enable all children to achieve their best, both in academic terms and in their personal and social development. Arts and sport are given equal importance with academic subjects.

Why not visit our blog and explore our website to have a taste of all that we do at 2 Albert Road and make an appointment to visit - we would be delighted to welcome you."
