Caldicott is a thriving day and boarding country prep school for boys aged 7 – 13 in South Buckinghamshire.  We pride ourselves on our warm community where our pupils are happy and feel valued.

Our founder, J. Heald Jenkins, believed decency, tolerance and humanity would enable each boy to ‘shine their light on the world’. Today, his vision remains relevant and a source of inspiration. 

At Caldicott we place each individual boy at the centre of our day and boarding experience and believe happiness is key to fulfilling potential. We also strive to keep Caldicott at the forefront of best practice and we work hard to be regarded as a leading light in pedagogy. 

We believe in developing each boy’s character and personality by fostering an ability to communicate and work well with others. They are equipped with a flair for solving problems and are encouraged to think outside of the box. Boys will leave Caldicott with the ability to become thriving global citizens.

Most of we believe in excellence in education, treasuring tradition and cherishing childhood. We are a school where boys fulfil their academic potential and are guided to become all-rounders, with the charisma and grit to succeed.

Situated in 40 acres of magnificent grounds, we are located just 15 miles from Heathrow Airport and 30 minutes from West London where we operate a daily return bus service from Chiswick, Brook Green, Notting Hill and the local area.

Our Open Mornings offer an opportunity for you to meet the boys and staff, tour the school and hear from The Headmaster where you will get a real flavour for what Caldicott is about.
