Manor House Independent Preparatory School
Springfield, Honiton, Nr.Exeter, Devon, EX14 9TL

 
Manor House Independent School PupilsManor House Independent Preparatory School, Devon, based just outside Honiton in beautiful East Devon countryside yet just fifteen miles from Exeter, is a fully co-educational preparatory day school for boys and girls from 2 to 11 years. Our aim is to provide an outstanding, rounded and appropriately challenging independent education in a vibrant and stimulating environment.


Whilst any good school will rank children’s welfare as important, at Manor House we consider that our pastoral care is second to none and provides the foundation from which all our great strengths emerge.

"There is excellent teamwork between all staff involved in nursery education....The shared ethos of learning through play leads to the careful planning of interesting practical activities which reinforce or extend children's learning, especially in mathematics and communication, language and literacy... The quality of staff interactions with children is outstanding in both age-groups...They build children's self-esteem through the use of extensive praise and encouragement, while gently enforcing their high expectations and clear routines... Children make excellent progress in their personal, social and emotional development."

Ofsted Report 2005 of the Foundation Stage at Manor House Independent Preparatory School.

From this emotional stability stems our academic excellence: In 2005 the inspectors found

  • " The quality of the pupils’ attitudes to work and their behaviour are consistently good, and pupils’ good progress is closely linked to their positive attitudes to learning and to the skilled teaching they receive."
"The school has many strengths, of which the following are the most important:
  • The caring ethos of the school and the very good provision for pupils’ personal development make for happy and successful pupils.
  • Pupils are very well looked after at each stage in the school and benefit from the commitment of staff at all levels to their care and welfare.
  • Leadership is very good.
  • High quality provision in the Foundation Stage gives children a very good start to their formal education. "
