Aldro - Preparatory School

We are a co-educational, independent day and boarding prep school. The school is located in a beautiful and quiet setting in Surrey, yet only 45 minutes from London and close to Heathrow and Gatwick airports. Aldro pupils move on at 13+ to a wide range of schools including Bradfield, Charterhouse, Cranleigh, Eton, Harrow, Lancing, Marlborough, Radley, RGS Guildford, Sherborne, Wellington and Winchester. We have an outstanding record of success in winning scholarship awards, both academic and for music, art, sport and all-round abilities. The school's Christian ethos helps to promote a warm and caring environment. Pupils here have opportunities to pursue a huge range of activities outside the classroom from the more conventional, such as sport, music, art and drama, to the others such as den-making, shooting, rowing, sailing and fishing. We hold Open Mornings once or twice a term and the dates for these can be found on our website ; or do arrange a visit. We would be delighted to meet you.
