Bryanston Prep School is delighted to announce that we have won the prestigious award for
The Best of the Best Prep School for Country Prep in the latest edition of the highly
acclaimed The Week, Independent Schools Guide!
Bryanston Prep, enjoys a beautiful idyllic setting, positioned in its own 30 acres of glorious
Dorset countryside. At the Prep we believe in the importance of learning through play and
nature is fundamental to sparking a natural, playful, and instinctive curiosity in children.
The School’s educational provision stretches far beyond the classroom: the children are
outdoors as much as possible, learning from and in nature. The pupils not only have access
to extensive grounds, timetabled Forest School sessions, and our own equestrian centre
with 13 ponies but also enjoy outdoor wellness days and overnight camps in the grounds
throughout the year. Tree-climbing, scooting, playing hide and seek is encouraged as well as
building dens, exploring the gardens, or helping look after the horses – not only teaching
valuable life skills but providing a unique sense of fulfilment and joy. In addition, Bryanston
Prep pupils have access to the 400-acre Bryanston senior school site with all of its
outstanding facilities which include a 25-metre swimming pool and theatre but also
specialist teaching from their Outdoor Education team for co-curricular lessons such as
kayaking, mountain biking and climbing.
