A very warm welcome to The Pilgrims’ School. If you’re looking for the very best education for your son, we think you might have just found it. A bold claim, but one I make with confidence. Having been a boy at Pilgrims’ myself, later returning as a member of staff, I’ve seen first-hand how a Pilgrims’ education builds strong foundations for life.
We believe Pilgrims’ offers boys the best start in life at the most crucial time in their development. Our boys work hard and have a lot of fun. Our ‘super curriculum’ offers opportunities unique anywhere at Prep School level and designed to appeal to a boy’s curiosity.
With nearly a century of experience, we’re experts in building boys of good character who enjoy learning, love general knowledge and leave ready to make the world a better place.
We encourage every boy to explore his individual ideas and creativity, something they develop as they move up the school. With numerous music ensembles, multiple choirs, all the sports you can think of and more, up to 50 extra-curricular activities a week, strong drama and LAMDA opportunities, and boarding, we’re a one-stop shop for a comprehensive curriculum, afterschool clubs and wrap-around care combined.
In Pre-Prep, music and creativity are at the heart of daily life, helping boys explore, express themselves, and build confidence through play, song, and imaginative activities.
Busy families need wraparound care. As a boarding school, we’re always set up to help.
The Pilgrims' School, Winchester
Outstanding prep school in Winchester for boys aged 4-13, day and boarding.
Year 7 have been walked from @studlandbay_nt to @swanage.dorset as part of their Geography work, taking in the landscape and beautiful costal scenery! 🌊 They just about avoided the rain! #ToBeAPilgrim #schoollife #schoolfamily #winchester #bsaboarding ... See MoreSee Less
Our prep boys this morning took part in a 10K walk around Winchester to raise money for charity, with our Pre-Prep coming in to take part in a 5K. We’re incredibly proud of how the boys took on this challenge in all seasons of weather! 🌦️
