Whether joining our Baby room, Toddlers, Rising 3's or Pre-School, we are sure you will find a session pattern that suits you and your child. Set in the stunning grounds of Haberdashers' Castle House Preparatory School, at Castle House Nursery School, we are dedicated to creating a nurturing, stimulating and welcoming environment for all children. Our unique programs incorporate a variety of educational theories, while always keeping the child’s best interest in mind and allowing for hands-on, experiential learning. We don't have shareholders at HCHS. You will therefore find that the fees we charge are very competitive from just £36 per session. Anchor 1 RECEPTION If you are joining us in Reception for the first time or moving up from our nursery, a warm welcome awaits on this foundation year of primary education. If you are considering next steps for your child, please do get in touch and pay us a visit. Our home-from-home environment coupled with the kind, caring and nurturing approach of our Lower School teachers creates an experience that is tailored to the needs of every child. Reception fees - £3,170 per term, £9,510 annually. Monthly payment plans available on request. Anchor 3 YEAR 1&2 Along with Reception, Year 1 & 2 make up the year groups of our Lower School cohort. Our children in Years 1 & 2 continue to build on the knowledge and skills acquired during their Reception year. Our teachers offer rich and exciting experiences with regular trips, visitors and plenty of opportunities for outdoor learning, hands on investigation and problem solving. Pupils continue to build upon and benefit from the specialist teaching lessons introduced earlier on in school life. Whether moving up or joining Haberdashers' Castle House from another school, our Lower School ensures constancy and measured progress. Year 1 & 2 fees - £3,765 per term, £11,295 annually. Monthly payment plans available on request. Anchor 4 YEAR 3-4 Years 3 & 4 are key to the preparations made for the move to senior school. Your Children will become far more independent in Years 3 & 4. They become less involved with a singular teacher in order to take advantage of our specialist educators - particularly in core subjects and senior school entrance preparations. We understand that this can sometimes be the stage at which you may question the progress your child has made at their current school. We are always very happy to meet and discuss your concerns and see if we can help. Upper school fees - £4,085 per term, £12,255 annually. Monthly payment plans available on request. Anchor 5 Anchor 2 YEAR 5-6 The Senior years (Years 5-6) at Haberdashers' Castle House are designed to build independence and academic readiness as students prepare for senior school. In this key stage, students transition to a learning environment where they work with a broader range of specialist educators, particularly in core subjects, to ensure they’re well-prepared for the challenges and expectations of senior school. At Haberdashers' Castle House, we recognize that this stage can bring up questions regarding your child’s progress and preparedness for what lies ahead. We welcome discussions with parents who may have concerns and invite you to meet with our staff to explore how we can best support your child’s journey. Upper school fees - £4,355 per term, £13,065 annually. Monthly payment plans available on request.
