WELCOME TO REGENT'S PARK PREPARATORY SCHOOL
North Bridge House Regent’s Park is becoming Alleyn’s Regent’s Park.
Find us at the edge of Regent’s Park – our very own London playground – where academic challenge meets a supportive school community. As we transition to Alleyn’s Regent’s Park, we remain committed to a knowledge-rich and purposeful curriculum, ensuring children aged 4-13 achieve top-tier academic outcomes. With a wealth of character-building experiences beyond the classroom and compassionate staff guiding every child’s individual journey, we continue to provide outstanding preparation for future success.
BESPOKE PREPARATION FOR FUTURE PATHWAYS
From a nurturing start to school life in The Nest, through an increasingly rigorous, specialist taught curriculum (incorporating everything from Mandarin to Politics, Philosophy and Economics), we thoroughly prepare pupils for the senior school best suited to their individual strengths and interests – expertly facilitating all 11+, 13+, or through school journeys.
MORE THAN JUST AN EDUCATION
With enriching co-curricular initiatives such as the ACE Programme and the Orchestra Project, close to 40 extra-curricular clubs, and an ISI (Independent Schools Inspectorate) commended programme of trips, we offer pupils a wholly inspiring experience, with constant opportunities to excel and find their own ‘True North’.
WE WOULD LOVE TO SHOW YOU AROUND
Join us at an Open Day to see the school in action, hear from the Head, and meet our brilliant staff and pupils. As we transition to Alleyn’s Regent’s Park, this is a great opportunity to learn more about our exciting next chapter. Private tours are available if you cannot attend an Open Morning or if you are looking for a mid-year or immediate vacancy.
We are here to personalise your tour experience.

A brilliant day of swimming for our students!
Year 8 student George and Year 9 student Martin joined Year 11 Yasmin in representing London North at this year’s ISA National Swim Competition.

🏊♂️ Martin - Year 9/10 Boys Butterfly 50m and 200m Medley Team

An early start well worth it!
Well done to our 28 students and staff who joined the Run Club this morning - the perfect sunrise to kick off the day and energise minds ready for a day of learning!
A special thank you to Mrs Donnelly, as today marked her final Run Club session. What a brilliant finish! 🌅🏃♀️

A super week of kindness!
Nursery and Pre-Prep spent the week championing kindness in celebration of Anti-Bullying Week and World Kindness Day, kicking things off with a colourful Odd Socks Day to celebrate what makes each of us unique.
Our young superheroes designed capes for their teachers, teamed up across year groups, and filled their kindness charts with compliments, helping hands and thoughtful gestures. It’s been a week filled with creativity and connection - proving that kindness really does make the world brighter. 🦸♂️🧦🤝🌈

Lest we forget. 🌺
In the lead-up to Remembrance Day, our Nursery and Pre-Prep pupils created beautiful poppy wreaths to display on each classroom door across the school. Through this thoughtful, sensory activity, they learned about the importance of remembering and honouring those who served - and did such a wonderful job creating something special together.

Who says you can’t find nature in the heart of the city?
Today, we celebrated @cnnclimate’s Call to Earth Day, held in partnership with Rolex’s Perpetual Planet Initiative - a global initiative dedicated to inspiring awareness and action for a more sustainable future. This year’s theme, “Guard Your Green Space,” couldn’t be more fitting for our students, who have been busy designing and transforming one of our outdoor areas into a sustainable Be Well Eco-Garden - growing flowers, herbs, and seasonal berries to encourage biodiversity in our urban surroundings.
CNN’s Nada Bashir visited to hear how this green haven will not only support local wildlife but also promote mindfulness and offer a calm space for students to connect with nature. As the garden develops, students plan to expand it further by growing vegetables that can be used in our school kitchen - a hands-on way to learn about sustainability and the journey from garden to plate.
We’re also actively working on other sustainability projects across the school:
💡 Turning off unused monitors and lights to reduce energy consumption
🔌 Unplugging devices when not in use to save power
🥗 Cutting down on food waste in the dining hall
🌱 Encouraging every class to take small steps that make a big difference
All part of our ongoing mission to reduce our carbon footprint and protect the planet we all share.
Together, we’re learning, growing, and taking action for a greener tomorrow - one mindful choice at a time. 💚🌳

Earlier in the term, our Year 7 students took part in a three-day residential trip to Condover Hall in Shrewsbury. It was the perfect way to start the year building new friendships and taking on challenges. The experience also helped students step outside their comfort zones and develop key skills such as communication, leadership, and resilience.
Their days were filled with lots of adventure, including activities like archery, zip-lining, wall climbing, the Gladiator Wall, and the laser maze. Each activity brought plenty of teamwork and encouragement as everyone pushed themselves and supported one another. They even swapped their helmets for headphones for a well-earned silent disco! The trip was a brilliant start to the year and an experience to remember. 🏕️🧗♀️🏹🎯

Teaching, learning, and giving back in Malawi 🇲🇼
During the summer, our very own Mr. Amar and Ms. Oliver travelled to Zomba, a remote village in southern Malawi, to volunteer as teachers with @chifundofoundation, a small Irish charity founded by friends of theirs.
Over three weeks, they did an incredible job teaching 70 students at a Summer School - leading lessons in Maths, Geography, History, Economics, Science, Music and ICT, while helping older students prepare for college and university. In the afternoons, classrooms turned into enriching spaces for creativity, with netball, guitar lessons, crafts, dancing and even “Chifundo Cinema”, where Mr Amar brought a portable projector and DVDs all the way from the UK so the students could experience The Lion King and Harry Potter for the very first time.
When power allowed, they introduced students to donated laptops, a first-time experience for many, and were continually inspired by their positivity, gratitude, and determination to learn despite the frequent power cuts and limited resources.
One of the charity’s greatest successes has been the graduation of Davies, who joined the programme in 2006 and recently completed his degree at the University of Malawi with honours - a true inspiration for others.
Mr. Amar and Ms. Oliver’s work in Malawi reflects exactly the kind of empathy, curiosity, and community spirit we hope to inspire in every student. Thank you to our community for your support, from donating football shirts to the Year 8 bake sale which raised £200 to provide blankets for the students.
A huge well done to Mr. Amar and Ms. Oliver and the team for their inspiring work and the lasting impact they’ve made in Malawi - a true reflection of the NBH spirit. 💙
