Reddiford School

What Reddiford School does

Reddiford School is an independent co-educational day school located in Pinner, Middlesex (Harrow area, Greater London), serving children aged 3 to 11. Founded in 1913 and celebrating its 110th anniversary in September 2023, the school is structured into four educational stages: Nursery (ages 3-4, Early Years Foundation Stage), Reception, Pre-Prep (Years 1-2), and Prep (Years 3-6). It operates across three physical addresses in Pinner — the Prep Department at 38 Cecil Park, the Pre-Prep at 99 Marsh Road, and the Early Years at 8 Cecil Park — with a separate Wrap Around Care service providing before- and after-school flexibility for working parents.

The school delivers a curriculum covering the English National Curriculum's Key Stages 1 and 2 plus the Early Years Foundation Stage, supplemented by an extensive extracurricular programme (karate, IT, coding club, music, sport) and a Year 6 residential at PGL Windmill Hill. A new gym and specialist classroom building was completed by Darwin Group in September 2020. Recent Year 6 cohorts have secured 98 independent school offers and 43 grammar school passes, which the school highlights as a core outcome metric and reputational asset.

The business model is term-based tuition paid by individual families, with fees not publicly disclosed (prospective parents contact the Registrar directly). Distribution is direct-to-consumer via the school's website, parent and governor portals, and an on-site admissions process involving visits, assessments, and applications. The school is governed by a board led by Mr. Graham Jukes OBE (Chair of Governors), with Mrs J Batt as Head Teacher and Mrs. Shepherd as Bursar; there is no parent company, external owner, or institutional investor involvement disclosed.
