Welcome to Leicester Preparatory School and Nursery
Founded in 1878, we are a small, family-run, independent school located centrally in the heart of Leicester.
We exist for families who want their child to be truly known– academically, socially and emotionally- and who value confidence, belonging and wellbeing as much as academic success.
Our small and nuturing class sizes mean that each lesson is tailored to the individual’s needs. No child is overlooked or lost in the crowd and every child is supported to develop important skills, build confidence, and progress academically, in preparation for a fast-changing world.
It also means that our children make exceptional academic progress and are well prepared for the next stages of their education.
At LPS, we are a family. Our dedicated teachers ensure that each child feels like they belong. Every teacher knows every child, and every child knows each other.
