Kind, Decent and Honest
All schools should be special places, where a happy nurturing environment impresses upon our youngest a lifelong dedication to learning and service to our communities.
At Llandovery Prep, affectionately known as ‘The Gollop’, after our Founder Ian Gollop, we endeavour to achieve this through a clear commitment right through to Year 8 to the building blocks of Literacy and Numeracy – the ‘syntax of achievement’ – embedded within a comprehensive, rounded and broad academic curriculum. Small class sizes allow for learning centred on each child’s needs, firmly rooted within a clear and consistently applied ethos that values tolerance, patience, kindness and generosity of spirit.
A sensitive rigour stretches our children in all that they do, and seeks to challenge them to take the risk of going beyond what they know. Our varied and enriching sporting and co-curricular programme deepens experience, promoting teamwork, determination and perseverance.
Our children are encouraged to embrace spirituality and collective worship as an important part of Prep School life, playing a crucial role in developing belonging, self-esteem and a modest confidence.
Choices made in the first steps of a child’s education are critical and opportunities to secure the foundations of intellectual and personal growth can be fleeting. Llandovery Prep School provides children with undoubtedly the best of starts, and as such it is indeed a very special place.
