Find out why families entrust Tranby with their child's future
While part of our school is undergoing exciting restoration work, our September Open Event will be a little more intimate than usual – but still full of opportunities to explore life at Tranby.
This event is especially focused on two key age groups:
- Children in Year 5 and Year 6
- Children aged 2+ (Preschool into Prep)
Families with children in other year groups are very welcome to attend for a personalised tour. While classroom activities will be tailored to the age groups above, our admissions team will be on hand to discuss options across the full age range.
For Year 5 and 6 pupils, Saturday 27 September is the perfect opportunity to step into life at Tranby Senior School. Pupils will take part in engaging taster sessions in STEM, Sport, Languages, and the Arts, getting a true feel for the challenge and joy of life at Tranby ahead of Year 7 entry in 2026 or 2027.
For families interested in Preschool, Reception, or Prep, you’ll explore The Croft—our nurturing early years setting — and/or our outstanding Prep School. From age 2, children benefit from specialist teaching in phonics and maths, alongside a purpose-built outdoor area that builds confidence, teamwork, and resilience. This strong foundation is why our pupils consistently excel — achieving a 100% pass rate in phonics.
You'll also have the opportunity to meet Mr Chris Wainman, the new Head of Tranby, who will share his vision for the future alongside Mrs Cath Sweeting, Head of Prep, and the wider team.
Booking is essential – please complete the form below, email admissions@tranby.org.uk or call 01482 657016 to secure your place.
