Local parents seeking a rich education for their children can find out all about The Richard Pate School in Leckhampton, when it welcomes visitors for an Open Morning on Saturday 12 February 2022.

Set in a leafy 11-acre campus on the outskirts of Cheltenham, The Richard Pate School is a leading independent day school for children aged three to 11.

It delivers a varied and stimulating education through its broad curriculum, helping students to discover their individual passions throughout its nursery, prep and junior departments.

Pupils benefit from purpose-built facilities, such as a dedicated science laboratory, art studio, IT suite and astro pitch – as well as an outdoors education, soaking up the fresh air and learning about nature in the school’s on-site woodland area.

The school offers a diverse co-curricular programme, too, with clubs and activities that span from knitting and language explorers to computer programming and sports.

It also pays special attention to its pupils’ individual needs to prepare them for the next stage of their education, helping them to find the best senior school to continue their academic journey after leaving in Year 6. It has a strong track record of achieving strong 11+ results and securing places at prestigious grammar and independent schools like Pate’s Grammar School and Cheltenham Ladies’ College.

Pupils can be admitted at any age, subject to availability – although most enter aged three, joining the nursery, or join the school’s junior department at age seven.

Anyone interested in securing a place for their child can visit The Richard Pate School during its Open Morning on Saturday 12 February 2022.
