Headmaster's welcome
At Willington Prep, we have only one purpose: we are wholly dedicated to giving every pupil an exceptional childhood, rich with opportunities and experiences. This fundamental purpose resonates through every aspect of our school life and shapes our commitment to our pupils and their families.
Nestled in the vibrant community of Wimbledon, Willington Prep is a co-educational haven for children aged 3 to 11, celebrating 140 years, in 2025, of nurturing young minds and hearts. Our embrace of co-education in 2020 marked a new chapter in our story, one that reinforces our belief in a family-oriented environment where every child matters.
At the heart of a Willington childhood is the happiness and self-assurance of our pupils. Guided by the enduring values of kindness, honesty, respect, and humility, we strive not only to educate but to inspire a lifelong journey of learning and discovery.
Our exceptional team of educators brings to life a broad and vibrant curriculum, supported by a rich tapestry of co-curricular activities. We see childhood as the very essence of life's foundation, a time to be valued, filled with wonder and growth. It is this philosophy that underpins our ethos: to cherish and elevate every moment of this pivotal stage of life.
While other schools may offer co-education, our approach is seasoned with our unique celebration of childhood, honouring the individuality of each young learner. This commitment has not only set us apart but also deepened our resolve to nurture a generation of confident, compassionate, and culturally aware individuals. Our children are multinational, multi-faith and multi-talented.
Thank you for your interest in Willington Prep, where childhood is not just a phase, but the heart of our 'why'.

The Willington Week - w/e 7th February 2025
As Year 3 could 'Feel the Force' at their Science Museum trip, Year 2 were getting to grips with the Great Fire of London workshop back at school, bringing history to life for our younger learners. A musical theme ran through the school this week, with a trip for our string-instrument players to Epsom College, while Year 5 were preparing their musical number with 'Food Glorious Food'. In sport, our thanks go to Aberdour for their superb gymnastics masterclass enjoyed by our Year 3 and 4 girls.
The Willington Week - w/e 31st January 2025
Reception flew through space at the Planetarium, while Year 1 whizzed around Brooklands, wondering at a bygone era of cars and planes. The week finished with a show of resilience from children (and parents!) at the very muddy house cross country competition.
