Leading Nursery and Preparatory School in Walton-on-Thames for children aged 2 to 11 years old.

Welcome to Danesfield Manor School, where the happiness of our pupils takes center stage. We believe that a happy child makes life easier for everyone – parents can go to work with peace of mind, and teachers can nurture and guide learning with joy. Each month, we focus on a different school value, prominently displayed in every room. We expect both pupils and staff to embody these values, ensuring a positive and supportive learning environment.

At Danesfield, we foster a Growth Mindset approach in our teaching and learning. When faced with challenges, both pupils and staff embrace the power of "yet." By incorporating this magical three-letter word, we encourage the belief that challenges can be overcome with effort and support. Whether seeking assistance from friends or breaking down a task into manageable steps, our approach empowers everyone to navigate obstacles with resilience and determination.

Why Danesfield Manor School ?

Happiness

We recognise the paramount importance of having happy pupils. Our emphasis on a positive and family-like community not only ensures a joyful learning environment but also establishes a supportive network where each child feels valued.
