All of our extra-curricular activities are designed to cultivate individual expression, self-esteem and confidence in our children. These include weekly swimming and music lessons, along with regular Forest School, French, Art and Drama. Sports and games are played daily, making use of our outdoor facilities wherever possible. All these opportunities are provided within School hours, making room for crucial family time at the weekends.
Our catering team are extremely good at dealing with any individual dietary/intolerance/allergies or religious requirements that your child may have. There are always a variety of hot and cold options as well as meat, vegetarian and vegan options.

No. Our School approach supports a busy family life and we therefore offer wraparound care, starting with breakfast at 8.00am, with the day finishing at 6.00pm. There are no extra charges for Breakfast Club or after-school care, as this is included in the termly fee.
Fees include all food and extra-curricular activities.
A Pre-Prep School starts children on their education journey between the ages of 3 and 7. There are a number of factors you should consider when choosing the best school for your child. Your criteria or range of options may include location, fit for your child, curriculum, facilities and whether the school offers wraparound care. And, if you have other children, where they attend school may able be a consideration.
Many Pre-Prep Schools combine core curriculum subjects with play-led activities. In the afternoons, children are taught specialist subjects by specialist teachers in lessons such as French, swimming, Art and Music. Wycliffe offers a Forest School that gives children the opportunity to try new things, develop an appreciation for the environment and gain greater independence by making their own decisions. This blend of outdoor and indoor learning ensures children receive a well-rounded education at this important age.
In each classroom, there is a teacher and a full-time teaching assistant.
We would love to welcome you to Wycliffe for a tour around our busy, contented, Cotswolds Campus.
Please get in touch to come and meet us.
