Our vision is to be a school that challenges, develops and nurtures every child, where every child is free to be themselves. We constantly strive to change and to improve, to deliver a modern education that prepares our children for an exciting future, encouraging them to aim high and dream big.
The Life Skills curriculum at Banstead Prep provides children with an opportunity to practise and develop important, transferable life skills. These directly relate to the BPS Learner Powers: Collaboration, Leadership, Independence, Curiosity, Adaptability, Communication, Resilience, and Pride. Through a carefully curated range of exciting lessons and activities, children in Years 3 – 6 develop their ‘learner powers’; these include but are not limited to, design challenges, critical thinking activities, debates, money skills, first aid, and cookery.
Today, Elliot and Kosara, with the help of Mrs Crook’s critical thinking club, posed some tough questions to our MP, Rebecca Paul, to conclude UK Parliament Week. It was a pleasure to have her with us!
Questions from ‘what attributes do you have that make you a great MP, and conversely, what are you working on to be better?’ To ‘What is the responsibility of the Opposition Assistant Whip?’ And even a ‘should we have a national pet?’ Were posed and the session led by the children.
You’ll be pleased to note that she recognised the importance of our learner powers, and stressed that in her job, she often needs to be a resilient squirrel! #parliamentweek2025 #britishvalvues #democracyatwork #educationuk #memberofparliament
