Kew College Prep (previously known as Kew College) is a non-denominational mixed preparatory school in Kew in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. Kew College Prep is an independent prep school for children aged 3 to 11.[2] [3] [4]
Kew College Prep began in 1927[1] as a small school located in a room above a shop in Kew. As the number of pupils grew, the school moved to a large Victorian house in Cumberland Road. In 1953 the school expanded into a second house in Cumberland Road. It became a charitable trust in 1985.[1]
Kew College Prep averages 292 pupils between the ages of 3 and 11.[2] Children start in the Nursery and stay at the school until the end of Year 6 when they move to secondary school.[5]
