Northbourne Park School warmly welcomes applications from families outside the UK. For over twenty years, we have embraced international pupils as part of our close-knit community, offering them the challenges and excitement of English prep school life while they develop their English language skills and make lifelong friendships.
Our international community is one of our greatest strengths. Our experienced staff are dedicated to helping every pupil thrive, whatever their nationality, culture, or background.
Joining Northbourne Park School
International pupils can join us at any age as boarders within the English system from age 7 (Year 3) to age 13 (Year 8). Day pupils can join the school from age 2.

Unique French Programme
We are one of the few UK schools to offer the CNED (Centre National d’Enseignement à Distance) programme, with CM2, 6ème, 5ème, and 4ème classes for French-speaking pupils aged 10 to 14.

Flexible Courses
We welcome applications for both the English and French sections for courses of one month, one term (approximately four months), or a full academic year (or more!). However, we believe pupils benefit most from spending at least a year at Northbourne Park.
