What our Award Holders say…

The value of Years 7 & 8
at Exeter Cathedral School

Bespoke Provision

Exeter Cathedral School is a Prep School, meaning that we educate pupils up until the end of Year 8. Joining us at Year 7 through to Year 8 offers huge advantages to children: our pupils benefit from being part of a small school and can grow in independence, self-reliance, self-awareness and self-confidence in a tailor-made and nurturing environment.

Valuing the Individual

We focus on educating ‘the whole child’. Our average class size is 15, and we are proud to know each and every one of our pupils as an individual. Our pupils can continue being children whilst learning about themselves and honing the skills they need to flourish at secondary school.

Superb Preparation and Future Success

At the end of Year 8, all our pupils move on to one of their chosen secondary schools: some choose state secondary schools, some choose grammar schools, and some choose independent schools. Whatever the family’s choice, we work alongside parents/guardians and the children to find the right school for them. In both 2020 and 2021, 84% of our Year 8 pupils secured a scholarship – some with double/ triple awards – at their first-choice senior school (with significant fee remission).
