Gayhurst is a happy, thriving and vibrant independent preparatory school for girls and boys aged three to 13 in Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire.

Academic standards are high and the results of external entrance examinations are outstanding at both 11+ and 13+.

Above all, we strive to instil confidence, a sense of decency and a sensitivity for others in our pupils.

We have a friendly, wonderfully-resourced environment with small class sizes in which children learn and flourish.

Opportunities outside the classroom abound. Excellent sports' facilities, first class music, art and drama encourage every child to find their own particular strength.

This website gives you a wealth of information about Gayhurst but the Headmaster would welcome the opportunity to show you round personally. Please telephone the Registrar Felicity Copp on 01753 882690 for an appointment.
