Chandlings Prep: Where Challenge Meets Fun! The Good Schools Guide describes Chandlings Prep as a place where "every child has the opportunity to challenge themselves both in and outside the classroom, and to have enormous fun doing so." And we couldn't agree more! At Chandlings Prep, we believe that learning should be an engaging adventure. We go beyond traditional textbooks, fostering a love of exploration, discovery, and pushing boundaries. Here's a glimpse of how we make learning challenging and fun: Innovative Curriculum: From building multiplication flashcards with LEGO® to immersive historical re-enactments in the school grounds, our curriculum ignites curiosity. Enrichment Activities: Over 60 extra-curricular clubs, guest authors, and exciting school trips provide opportunities to delve deeper into interests and develop new skills. Themed Learning Days: From "Pirate Adventures" in Reception to "Space Days" in Year 1, innovative themed days bring learning to life in a captivating way. Celebration of Creativity: Whether it's creating music, building hammocks in the woods or performing in a school play, we encourage students to express themselves creatively. The result? Confident, curious learners who embrace challenges and find genuine enjoyment in the learning process. #goodschoolsguide #chandlingsprep #championinginnovation #championingchildhood #championingadventure #championingendeavour #innovativelearning #prepschools #prepschoolsoxford @goodschoolsguide

Our Nursery is an integral part of the Chandlings Prep family and they take full advantage of our beautiful 60-acre grounds everyday! This week they enjoyed spotting geese and their adorable goslings at one of our ponds during their outdoor learning lesson. We love seeing our Nursery children connect with the world around them! #ChandlingsPrep #NurseryLife #OutdoorLearning #NatureExploration #oxfordshire
As we come to the end of the school year our wellbeing focus is on My Reflections. We will be asking the Year 6 children to reflect on their time at Chandlings and fill in our Memories of Chandlings Book. But reflection is something you can constantly do on anything - your learning, something you enjoyed or perhaps something you could do better. Stop, Think, Pause and Reflect.
