Early Learning Stages

The educational journey begins at Little Saint Felix, welcoming children from two to four years old. Here, they engage with the EYFS early development program through creative activities, music, swimming, and outdoor exploration at the campus’s Forest School. Reception continues this foundation while gradually introducing more structured learning. The Pre-Prep department then takes children through Reception and the first two years of primary education, where they build shelters, light fires, and study their natural surroundings alongside core academics—a hands-on approach that nurtures curiosity and confidence before moving to Prep.

Saint Felix School Preparatory Department

Prep welcomes students aged 7 to 11, guiding them through Key Stage 2 from years three to six. Alongside core subjects—mathematics, sciences, English language and literature, physical education—they explore:

• Foreign languages
• Humanities
• Art
• Music
• Drama
• Information technology

The Forest School remains integral to learning here, while regular visits to Senior facilities—including science labs, theater, and swimming pool—help students familiarize themselves with specialized spaces, smoothing their eventual transition between stages.

Senior School and GCSE

The Senior department covers Key Stage 3 and GCSE preparation, following the national curriculum while adapting it to contemporary teaching methods. Students pursue mathematics, sciences, English language and literature, physical education, with GCSE options including:

• Art, photography, and textile design

Small class sizes enable teachers to provide individualized attention, building personalized academic and psychological support for each student.
