Prospect House School
11+ Admissions Guide 2026

Prospect House School was founded in the 1960s as a nursery in Barnes before relocating to Putney in 1991, where it became a preparatory school. The school now occupies two buildings on Putney Hill: the Lower School, which welcomes pupils from Nursery to Year 2, and the Upper School, which is home to pupils in Years 3 to 6. The school has been owned by Dukes Education since February 2020. The school aims to provide a broad-based curriculum that equips pupils with the knowledge and skills to become active, confident and responsible members of society. It strives to create a safe, supportive and well-resourced environment in which pupils develop a positive attitude towards themselves and others, alongside qualities such as politeness, concern for others, initiative and independence. Pupils are welcomed from a broad range of backgrounds and abilities. The school identifies and supports those with special educational needs and/or disabilities, and also makes provision for pupils who speak English as an additional language. Where pupils are identified as more able, the curriculum is adjusted to meet their needs.

Mobile phones are not allowed in school, except in the case of children in year 6 who have been allowed to travel to and from school alone. If a child has a mobile phone for this purpose, it must be switched off and left in the school office during the day. Mobile phones are not permitted when children are on residential visits.
