Welcome to Crowstone Preparatory School
| The education of your child is of vital importance to you as a parent; it
constitutes an investment in the future, and you will naturally be anxious to
find the right school. The wealth of opportunities we
provide at Crowstone is highlighted in our website/prospectus and aims at
developing the potential of every boy or girl, in whatever area it may lie. |
|
| Raising and educating your children in today's world is fraught with
difficulties for both parents and teachers alike. However, my aims for children
in my care have never changed and because of this I am sometimes considered to
be 'old fashioned.' No matter; even after all these years I still uphold the
belief in well-tried and tested traditional methods of teaching the 3R's whilst
still incorporating the guidelines set by the National Curriculum in ALL subject
areas. |

|
Academic qualifications, even at primary school level, are of vital importance
today and their acquisition forms the focal point of a pupil's time here. But,
just as important, if not more so, is the development of a proper sense of
values. We hope this rounded education, which involves you, the parent, will lay
the foundations for your son or daughter to meet the challenge of the future in
a vastly changing world. |
|
| I regularly hear of the achievements and successes of past pupils. This is
always very gratifying, especially when I am told that their success at
university, or in business has been due in no small part to the excellent start
in their education at Crowstone. Indeed, I am delighted and proud to have a
growing list of past pupils now keen to register their own children with
Crowstone. Thus, our excellent reputation continues with a second generation. |
|
|
| My aim is to continue to send to Grammar/Secondary Schools well-rounded,
confident, respectful young people who enjoy the experience of learning in this
exciting world, who take pride in all that they do and who will eventually make
a very positive impact in this world as young adults. |
|
I hope that, after visiting our web site and reading the prospectus, you will be
encouraged to arrange a visit with us to discuss your child's education at first
hand and see us in action. I shall be delighted to welcome you.
