Kew Green accepts boys and girls into Reception in the September following their 4th birthday and older pupils at the start of every term if spaces are available. Parents must commit to keeping their child at Kew until secondary transfer at 11 years.

The school can be found just before Ferry Lane, off Kew Green and near the main entrance to Kew Gardens. It is housed in an attractive 4 storey building set in extensive grounds backing onto the Thames towpath.

The use of computers is an integral part of the curriculum. From Reception, pupils will embark on the path to computer literacy. We believe that the younger the children start to use computers, the more naturally and easily they take to them. Each year group has a programme of learning where they use software designed to make the lessons both informative and fun. During Information Technology lessons each child has the use of his or her own designated laptop.

Music is an important part of the curriculum. In addition to class lessons, pupils are encouraged to join the Junior or Senior Choir and the School Orchestra. In Year 4, each child is given the opportunity to try a wide range of musical instruments. Peripatetic teachers offer individual tuition and it is possible for singing lessons to be arranged.

Kew Green Preparatory School provides religious education that is broadly Christian in nature, but they welcome children from families of all denominations and faiths and from those where no faith is professed. In regular assemblies, the children are given the opportunity to develop awareness of world religions and of important humanitarian and spiritual matters. Topical issues and those of more permanent relevance are also brought to their attention.

As Kew Green Preparatory School is situated on Kew Green we benefit from its use without the need for coach travel to and from playing fields further away. As well as P.E. lessons the children benefit from specialist coaching in football, rugby, netball and hockey. We also use the cricket pitch and nets belonging to Kew Green Cricket Club and take full advantage of newly laid tennis courts within walking distance of the school. For swimming the children use The Fountain Leisure Centre just over Kew Bridge.

Unusually for a school in London, Kew Green Preparatory School has a large playground and a garden. Qualified teachers are on duty during breaks and at lunchtime. The whole site is surrounded by a high boundary wall with only one accessible entrance. During the day the pedestrian gate is kept locked electronically to enable the vetting of visitors and provide maximum security.
