From the Headmistress

At The Chadderton Preparatory Grammar, our aim is to inspire and challenge children to love learning. We pride ourselves on our child-centred approach to teaching and learning, celebrating the individual talents and personalities of every child. We believe that school should be a fun, exciting place where children can learn in a secure environment and can take risks when exploring new ways of learning. How children learn is as important to us as what they learn.

We are a friendly and family-orientated school where partnerships between parents are actively encouraged and fostered through our open door policy. The unique relationship between children, teachers and support staff is one of our key strengths and, as a result, children thrive and progress in our environment.

Our small class sizes mean that we treat every child as an individual and the excellent ratio of staff to children ensures a high level of support, so that children quickly build up strong literacy and numeracy skills. Innovative and enthusiastic teachers are pivotal to our success, and lie at the heart of our learning community, providing the framework for your child’s educational, cultural and social development.

We are a preparatory grammar school meaning our approach is centred upon delivering a grammar school education to primary aged children. Because of this, a sustained emphasis is placed throughout the school on the breadth and balance of the education we provide, ensuring that children enjoy their learning.

Children will leave The Chadderton Preparatory Grammar as happy and confident individuals, with the skills required to be independent learners, well-prepared for the next chapter in their education. 

There is only so much that a website can portray, so I invite you to visit us and discover the unique and welcoming atmosphere that is The Chadderton Preparatory Grammar.
