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.
Join us at our next Open Morning:
Saturday 27th September, 9:30am

History is full of extraordinary stories waiting to be told and Black History Month is our chance to celebrate them.
Black History Month began in the UK in 1987, thanks to Akyaaba Addai-Sebo, inspired by the US observance founded by Carter G. Woodson in 1926. This year’s theme, “Standing Firm in Power and Pride,” recognises the resilience, leadership, and rich cultural legacy of Black communities across the UK.
In assembly, we explored the early presence of Black people in Britain and highlighted key figures such as Mary Seacole, the pioneering nurse and businesswoman, and Olaudah Equiano, the author and abolitionist. We also reflected on Black British culture today and discussed why learning about these histories matters; it promotes equality, inclusion, understanding, and unity, while recognising contributions that are often lesser-known.
This month gives us an opportunity to celebrate and reflect on the voices, stories, and achievements that shape our society - an awareness and appreciation we actively celebrate throughout the year. 🌍🫱🏾🫲🏼

Our Nursery and Pre-Prep pupils brought the spirit of Carnival to school today, arriving in colourful clothing and bright smiles!
The day began with a colourful parade, with pupils proudly showing off their bright outfits before enjoying a range of activities inspired by Carnival celebrations across African and Caribbean cultures. In celebration of Black History Month, the event was a joyful way to learn about different traditions and the stories behind them - with a tasty Caribbean lunch to round off the day!
Celebrating occasions like this remind us how important it is to celebrate diversity and help our pupils appreciate the many cultures that shape our community. 🌍

This week we’ve been giving back and growing in kindness!
As part of our Harvest Festival Week, pupils have been collecting essential foods, toiletries, and tinned goods to support Food Bank Aid, a community-led charity that collects and distributes donations to those in need within our local community. Our pupils even designed posters to show which items were needed most, helping everyone contribute in a meaningful way. These activities help our children understand from an early age the importance of generosity, empathy, and supporting others.
The week concluded with a special Harvest assembly, where pupils reflected on the impact of their efforts and the value of community. It has been wonderful to see our everyone actively engaging in helping those less fortunate while celebrating the spirit of giving. 💛

This morning, we came together for a special Hello Yellow assembly, inspired by the YoungMinds campaign, to celebrate World Mental Health Day and support children and young people’s well-being.
Our students reflected on what mental health means, acknowledging that it’s normal to have both good and bad days. They explored how talking openly about feelings can break down stigma, and shared thoughtful ways to support themselves and each other through listening, checking in, showing kindness, and asking for help, which is a true sign of strength.
We’re also thrilled to share that, thanks to our students, staff, and families, we’ve raised a total of £3,719.80 for @youngmindsuk! 👏
Let’s make every day a ‘yellow day’ in spirit: full of kindness, empathy, and connection. 💛
