Notting Hill Preparatory School
About Notting Hill Preparatory School
If you are a parent weighing up Notting Hill Preparatory School, the first signal worth noting is that this is a private primary school that is significantly oversubscribed. With 330 pupils on roll against a capacity of 540, the school is operating well below its maximum, which suggests a deliberately selective intake rather than a scramble for places. The school does not publish a parent-view recommendation percentage in the data, so you will need to rely on word of mouth or a visit to gauge how current families feel. However, the fact that it is a private school in the competitive Kensington and Chelsea borough, where 13 out of 28 primary schools are rated Outstanding, means it must work hard to justify its fees. The headteacher, Jane Cameron, leads a mixed-gender school for children aged 4 to 13, with no nursery or boarding provision, so it is squarely aimed at day pupils from reception through to the end of Year 8.
