Your child's Keble journey begins here
Keble is a co-educational prep school for children aged 3-13. Entry is available at 3+ (Nursery) and 4+ (Reception). Occasionally, we may have available spaces across our classes from Years 1-8.
Beyond Keble
As part of the Mill Hill Education Group, our pupils benefit from our Group Senior School Pathway, which offers them the opportunity to receive conditional offers for 13+ places at one or our Group Senior Schools without sitting the standard entrance exams.

Our Nursery
We welcome approximately 16 pupils into our Nursery every September. We offer a full day Nursery provision, with children spending their day between our newly designed indoor and outdoor Nursery learning environments.
The Nursery team consists of a fully qualified Class Teacher and a Level 3 teaching assistant. The team plan a range of exciting indoor and outdoor activities that offer play and exploration across all seven areas of the Early Years Foundations Stage, (EYFS) which enhance children’s unique learning and development. The Nursery children also have specialist teaching sessions from our specialist teachers including Music, French and PE.
Nursery ‘Meet and Greet’ sessions
Despite us not being a selective school, we pride ourselves on working in partnership with parents to ensure Keble Prep is the right fit for your child and therefore, we take time to get to know you and your child as part of this process.
Our Nursery ‘Meet and Greet’ sessions take place in the autumn term, usually in the November prior to the year of entry, although they can take place at any point, if there are places available. Children, together with their parents, will be invited to take part in an informal ‘Meet and Greet’ session with the Head, Mr Gill and Head of Pre-Prep, Miss Callaghan. This approach enables us to get to know you and your child to ensure that Keble can best meet your child's needs.
If a space arises in the Nursery class throughout the academic year, we would also invite your child to join the Nursery class for a ‘Play and Stay’ session for one hour to help us to get to know your child if immediate entry is being considered. The Head of Pre-Prep and EYFS staff would spend time observing your child within our Nursery setting.
Please note that it is not possible to defer offers for our Nursery to our Reception Year Group. If you are offered a place in the Nursery and you are unable to accept for any reason, you would be invited to join us for a further ‘Meet and Greet’ for the following year for a possible place in our Reception Year Group.
If you would like to discuss this entry point, please email the Head of Admissions, Mrs Louisa Miltiadous at lmiltiadous@kebleprep.co.uk or phone 020 8360 3359.
Transition into Keble
We plan a range of exciting events to support your child’s transition into our Nursery and Reception Class. During the Summer term, prior to starting, there are ‘Stay and Play’ sessions for you to visit with your child, to welcome you all to the Keble community and to meet the adults that will be working with your child on their learning journey.
The staff working in the EYFS will also plan a ‘Home Visit’ to help them to get to know your child to ensure learning and development at the start of the academic year is planned to meet their unique needs. Full details will be sent to you throughout the year before your child joins us.
