At Moffats, children have the freedom to enquire, to investigate, to think flexibly and to solve problems.

Sometimes children work individually. Sometimes they work in groups. But always in small, mixed-ability classes in which whole-class teaching is combined with work that is appropriate to the ability of individual children.

Choosing the right school for your child is one of the most important decisions you make about his or her future. We work with parents to give their children a well-rounded start in life.

We always welcome visitors, and will take time to show you the normal daily lives of children and staff at Moffats. Please contact us to arrange a visit.

Why choose Moffats for your child?

We begin with an assumption: everyone is different. We teach to celebrate and support the differences, which means we find the strengths of your child, identify any difficulties he or she has, then help with them.

We don’t overcrowd children physically or mentally. Moffats will always remain a small school in a big house, with room to learn and to play so that children can enjoy a proper childhood.

Moffats excels at drawing out the abilities of children and encourages them to achieve their individual best, without undue pressures or anxieties.

At Moffats, children are encouraged to have fun, to work hard, and to achieve to the best of their individual abilities. They absorb core values of decency, honesty and good manners alongside a clear sense that each child should contribute to the community.

Aim to do your best at whatever you undertake is the basic philosophy that underpins life at Moffats.
