Welcome to St Anthony’s School for Boys

St Anthony’s is a private academic IAPS preparatory school for boys and co-educational nursery for pupils between the ages of 2.5 and 13. Primarily a Roman Catholic school, it also welcomes children from diverse backgrounds and all faiths. Creativity, Academic Excellence and Pastoral Care all go hand in hand and the school fosters an atmosphere of kindness and respect alongside an extended and rigorous approach to learning. Boys learn to be risk takers and develop an innate intellectual curiosity that they carry with them when they transfer to academically selective, leading independent schools.
Destinations
Our ‘greenhouse’ approach pays handsome dividends as each year boys secure places at leading senior schools which suit their academic and wider interests.
Testimonials

Pupils’ moral and spiritual understand is developed within the school’s Catholic ethos, which permeates school life.

Leaders create an environment where everyone is valued.

ISI Report – January 2024

Our son has offers from City, Highgate, UCS, MTS and Mill Hill. So we’re delighted and very proud of him.

More importantly you’ve managed to give him a real enthusiasm for learning – not easy to do!

Parent, February 2024

A heartfelt thank you for all your support in helping both our boys achieve everything so far. When I think where the boys were – transferring schools following lock-down – they have come such a long way, and we are in no doubt that we have St Anthony’s to thank for this.

Parent, March 2024

I am thrilled to see my son’s progress at St. Anthony’s and truly appreciate all the mentoring and firm support from you and everyone at St. Anthony’s. Without you, he could not have received the scholarship from Habs.

‘I was truly honoured to be there. I had such fun, both preparing for it and delivering it, and most of all meeting the boys and talking with them. I found their questions really engaged, reflective and thought-provoking. You’re doing such a wonderful job at creating curious minds, it’s a real inspiration!!’

Lecturer, May 2022

‘We have been so impressed and delighted with the way the school has not only taught but supported the boys during these very studious and stressful months of senior schools applications’

Parent, March 2023 

Our son is absolutely over the moon to have received an 11+ offer from City of London Boys School and we are happy in equal measure. He also has offers from St Albans, Forest School and Mill Hill.

Parent, March 2024

Pupils display a real passion for learning and strive to give of their best.

ISI Report – January 2024

We couldn’t be more thrilled with our son’s senior school offers and want to thank you all for your huge efforts and kindness in this entire process.

Parent, February 2024

‘Your support really helped G achieve a place at senior school. The one thing that stood out for me was the help teachers gave him to prepare for the interview.  I recall doing some last minute prep with him the evening before the interview and G critiqued of piece of poetry – I was left speechless by the quality, level of insight and above all how G delivered his analysis. His interviewer afterwards was similarly impressed.  I know you helped G with this and it really made a difference.

I do want to thank teachers for going beyond what they might otherwise be expected to do.  These things make a difference and ultimately can change the direction of a child’s life.’

We are absolutely thrilled with our son’s results – he has been offered places at Mill Hill, Aldenham and Forest School. Thank you so much for all your support, it was honestly a fairly painless process.
