The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Trees
Earlier this year, the School signed up to The Queen’s Green Canopy, a special tree-planting initiative to mark Her Majesty The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. This project was in conjunction with The Royal British Legion, with 105 saplings kindly donated to the School by The Woodland Trust.
The School received the saplings from the Trust earlier this month, and members of the School community, including pupils and staff from both Quainton Hall, our prep school, and John Lyon planted these at Sudbury playing fields this term.
A plaque has been laser cut internally by our DT department. This will accompany the site where the saplings have been planted to serve as a wonderful reminder to current and future generations of this historic and significant event.
We provide a wide range of sporting activities and opportunities for all pupils.
At our Prep School we concur with educational theorists who emphasise the importance of the creative mind and ‘emotional intelligence’ and ‘wellbeing’ – the need to develop the whole personality and our pupil’s imaginations especially. Drama has the power to liberate the mind.
We encourage our pupils to become healthy, independent and responsible members of society. 
At our Prep School, Computing covers the use of electronic technology in all its forms, including computers and other communication devices.
• What is religion?
Art is an integral part of our Prep School’s curriculum, providing our pupils with a unique means of expressing their ideas by allowing them to explore new thoughts and give life to their creative minds.
History is taught throughout the School and pupils are encouraged to find out about events and peoples.
Planet Earth is our only home. It is an mind-blowing, diverse and constantly changing place of awesome beauty and power. 
French is the language of our nearest neighbours, probably the easiest foreign language for English speakers to learn and, after English, one of the most widely-learned languages worldwide.
The core of every science lesson at our Prep School is about developing every pupil’s curiosity in the world around them. 
Mathematics is a key subject for children of all ages at our Prep School.
English is taught using lively and creative methods through a variety of texts and resources incorporating ICT from Pre-Prep onwards.
