WELCOME TO Dorset House School
PART OF THE LANCING COLLEGE FAMILY OF SCHOOLS
Welcome
At Dorset House, we aim to provide a magical prep school experience for our pupils in an environment where children are engaged, enthused and inspired. We are often described as a greenhouse not a hot house and we find that pupils grow in confidence in our high challenge/low threat atmosphere.
Our committed and talented staff foster close links between home and school and we know every child well, meaning that we are aware of any successes achieved or issues they are facing.
Our optional flexi and weekly boarding for our Prep children, promote independence.
Happy, confident – not arrogant young people, who can relate to and communicate with others – Dorset House children often win awards and scholarships to senior schools and regularly going on to hold positions of responsibility.
Prospective parents often comment on the warmth of this school and if that is something which is important to your family, please call to make an appointment to visit us. We look forward to meeting you.

Happy Friday!
What a stunning end to a busy week.
Congratulations to Paxton in Year 8 who recently wowed as the eponymous hero in a production of Billy Elliot from the Sandra Wilson School of Performing Arts - @sandrawilson.pa
The whole cast worked very hard on this production and the audience really enjoyed their polished performance.
Well done to Paxton and the whole team!
It`s hard to stand still when there`s jazz in the air!
Mrs Lake and her Reception class paused on their way into lunch to listen to Mr Marconi and Zachary form Year 8 who had taken their practice outside to make the most of some much needed sunshine.
Keep your eye on the boy on the left of the line - he is in the groove!
Our next Open Morning will be in March 2026...
...but visitors are always welcome. Please call the school to arrange an appointment (01798 831456)
