Edenhurst was founded in 1961 with just a handful of pupils. Since then, the school has flourished and developed to the point where there are now two hundred and thirty boys and girls, aged between three and thirteen, a significant number of whom are children of former pupils.

We have created an environment where pupils can make the most of their talents with the benefit of individual attention.

The school's academic record speaks for itself. Our examination results are consistently well above the national norm and every year we successfully prepare children for examinations to their chosen senior independent school.

At Lichfield Cathedral School we aim to provide all children from Nursery to Secondary with a thorough academic foundation together with a broad range of opportunities to develop individual interests and talents.

There is a strong emphasis on pastoral care, providing a secure and ordered framework through which all children can develop their self-esteem and find success. As an Anglican foundation, Christian values are an important part of daily life. However, children of any denomination are welcome.

We rightly take pride in all the achievements of the members of our community in their academic successes as well as the rich variety of other opportunities offered by the school. We aim for excellence; we have high expectations and set the highest standards, doing all that we can to help our pupils reach their goals whilst at the same time challenging them as they go through the school to take advantage of all that is available to them.

Smallwood Manor Preparatory School is a co-educational 2-11 independent day school and nursery.

A Woodard School, Smallwood began its life at Denstone College, our Senior School, in 1902. In the 1930’s the Preparatory School moved to our present site at Smallwood Manor in Uttoxeter. Set in beautiful landscape gardens, surrounded by gently rolling banks of woodlands on the Staffordshire-Derbyshire border, Smallwood Manor is a truly inspirational place for little people to learn and grow.

Saint Bede’s is one of the few remaining family run schools in the country. As such, the much vaunted family atmosphere to which many schools aspire, comes instinctively to us.

Saint Bede’s offers a broad and balanced education to boys and girls aged 4 - 13. We set high standards in all our undertakings where children are expected to meet and surpass their own expectations. Our curriculum draws from both the National Curriculum and the Common Entrance Syllabs. This ensures an exceptional education, where children are taught how to think rather than what to think.

St Dominic's is a co-educational, non-denominational school for children from the ages of 3 to 11 years. The school was founded by the Order of English Dominican Sisters around 1857. Until 1980, the school was Junior Department of the Direct Grant School of St. Dominic's High School. In 1980 the Infant and Junior Department became an Independent School and has continued to retain the traditional values so closely associated with the original grammar school status.
If you are looking for a school that caters for every aspect of your child's academic, artistic and social development, then look no further than St Dominic's. We offer a broad and balanced curriculum which runs throughout the the entire school.
