Durlston Prep & Senior School

This has been school to three of my children for the last 7 years. Though my youngest is still here the older 2 have moved on, as the school only goes up to 13. High academic standards without being pushy, nice teachers and amazing facilities. I can't really think of anything bad to say about Durlston Court Prep, so that is probably a good enough review in itself. It has coped well with the transition from Mr Wansey, the old Headmaster from 2000 to 2015, and all seems fine in the safe hands of Mr May going forward. I am sure all of ny children will remember their time at Durlston with great fondness and happiness as they grow up. I only wish that I could have gone there myself. One word of advice to parents with very grown up 10 year olds - the children are definitely ready to move on at 13 and may have outgrown the school, as one of mine would have had she stayed, however the other 2 (boys) needed that extra growing up time and we are very glad that they stayed on to 13.I will really miss this amazing place when my youngest leaves in July. They really don't know how lucky they are!

Wonderful place. Great atmosphere. Pupils and teachers are all lovely.Highly recommended

A great Prep School with staff who care about each pupil. With excellent academic results year after year. The school calendar is always full of events which encompass all the family members and help create the warm family atmosphere of the school.
