Cranleigh Prep

Ex Cultu Robur – From Our Culture Comes Strength

Our motto defines every aspect of school life and the benefit of a Cranleigh education.

Our Aims

To educate young people to be the best they can be so that they thrive in all aspects of their lives, professionally and personally.

To motivate a new generation of leaders who think globally, act with integrity and make courageous contributions to an ever-changing world.

To develop critical thinkers, creatives, communicators and characters who understand the importance of curiosity, generosity and humility.

Our Ethos

We are one school with two sites: Prep and Senior.

We are unapologetically ambitious for all our students. 

We believe everyone is capable of outstanding academic performance, by making progress within the healthy, happy and inclusive atmosphere we work so hard to create. 

We expect students to work hard in lessons, play fair on the sports field and take feedback when it’s offered. 

We work in partnership with families to provide a balanced and truly personalised education that nurtures intellectual curiosity, personal responsibility and the well-being of every student.

We set our young people up for success without being highly selective. Whatever your ability or interest, you will find a champion at Cranleigh. 

From this culture, our students find the strength to:

ASPIRE BOLDLY by setting ambitious goals, embracing challenges and striving for excellence. And by demonstrating curiosity, creativity, and an appetite for problem-solving.

BE YOURSELF by acting with authenticity, self-awareness, and confidence. And by demonstrating resilience, integrity, and emotional intelligence.

CARE FOR OTHERS by practising kindness, empathy and service. And by demonstrating respect, compassion and collaboration.

This is the spirit of Cranleigh.

A rich education in and out of the classroom and the result is grounded children achieving their best without stress.

We're here to help children find their superpower.
