St John's Beaumont School

Windsor, Surrey, South East · SL4 2JN

A small Roman Catholic prep school in Windsor, St John's Beaumont educates just over 200 boys and girls from ages 3 to 13, with boarding available alongside day places. The Independent Schools Inspectorate rated both its overall quality of education and its pupils' personal development as excellent. It is worth noting, however, that the school did not meet ISI compliance standards at its inspection, an area parents may wish to raise directly. With fewer pupils than many of its peers, the school offers an intimate setting through to senior school entry at 13.

Teaching & academics

The excellent ISI judgement points to genuine academic strength across the curriculum. Around 14 per cent of pupils receive SEN support, suggesting the small classes allow staff to identify and respond to individual needs. As a school running to age 13, much of its work is geared towards preparing pupils for entry to senior independent schools.
