Why Choose All Hallows

At All Hallows, we believe that education is about more than just academic achievement; it is about providing a foundation for a happy, confident, and fulfilling life. Our Headmaster describes All Hallows as a "unique and inclusive Somerset Prep-School, where pupils, parents, and staff alike, feel they truly belong". We are committed to fostering a secure and happy community where every child is truly seen, known, and valued.

Our school’s philosophy is to provide a holistic education, nurturing the "whole child" intellectually, personally, creatively, emotionally, and spiritually. This approach is designed to challenge and inspire pupils, preparing them not just for the next stage of their education but for a life of purpose and impact.

A Compassionate Community

Choosing the right school is a deeply personal decision, and parents often seek an environment that feels welcoming and supportive. The All Hallows community is built on a foundation of kindness, empathy, and respect. We prioritise the emotional and social well-being of our pupils, providing outstanding pastoral care to ensure every child feels safe, happy, and supported. This nurturing atmosphere allows children to build self-esteem and confidence as they grow.

Academic Excellence with a Bespoke Approach

All Hallows delivers a balanced and broad curriculum that combines academic rigour with a wealth of creative arts and sports. We aim to provide a bespoke, personalised curriculum that recognises each child's individuality and unlimited capacity for greatness. Our dedicated teachers work with children to build fundamental skills while igniting their curiosity and love of learning. Our curriculum prepares pupils for a seamless transition into a specialised senior education and beyond.

Beyond the Classroom: The All Hallows Difference

Learning at All Hallows extends far beyond the traditional classroom. We believe that co-curricular activities are a vital part of a well-rounded education. We offer an extensive range of clubs and activities designed to help children discover their passions and talents, whether that is on the sports field or the stage.

As one of our pupils, James, said, "I absolutely love playing rugby at my school... It’s so much fun running around the field with my friends, passing the ball, and scoring tries". This quote captures the energy and camaraderie that defines life at All Hallows. We encourage you to visit our campus to "feel the energy and vibrancy" for yourself.

Tailored for Your Family

The decision of where to begin your child's education or to provide a stable home in a world of change is a significant one. At All Hallows, we have tailored our offerings to support the unique needs of every family, from the earliest years to those requiring a home away from home.

For our youngest learners, we welcome children into our Nursery class in the term following their third birthday and into Reception in the September when they are four years old. We provide a seamless transition into school life, offering an enriching Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum that combines a play-based approach with access to specialist teaching in subjects like Music, Art, and P.E. We also support families with financial options such as the Early Years Entitlement grant and employer childcare voucher schemes.

For those who require a consistent and nurturing environment, our school has a long tradition of educating the children of military and international families, understanding the unique challenges of life on the move. Our flexible boarding options, full, weekly, or flexi, are designed to meet different family needs, and our "home-from-home" philosophy ensures every child is seen, supported, and feels they truly belong. We provide dedicated support for our military families, with an Armed Forces Package that includes committed financial support and an inclusive bundle of extras.
