At Taunton Preparatory School we aim to inspire every child to develop into a confident, well-educated personable young adult who has enthusiasm for learning.
We aim to nurture individual talents and an enquiring mind. We place a strong emphasis on numeracy and literacy, and recognise key strengths in Science and Technology. We also encourage children to show a special interest in their environment and to enjoy a wide variety of Sports and the Arts.
The school is a caring society, based on Christian values. Each child is made to feel important and all young Tauntonians are encouraged to develop a positive and cheerful approach to the daily challenges of life. They must seize every opportunity ...... and have fun!
