Mosman Church Of England Preparatory School
School in Mosman

Founded in 1904, Mosman Prep (as it is fondly called) is renowned as a specialist preparatory school for boys. As the beginning Headmaster, 'Libby' Yarnold said at the time I wish to establish a school of a good type where parents can confidently send their boys. Over the latter years the School has provided an distinguished academic, social and all round education focused on the needs of boys that healthy prepares them for the future. Our slogan 'Educating for Tomorrow, Today' encapsulates a focus on being forward looking in readiness for the complexities of the world in which the boys will live. The school is of a size where every boy is known personally. The School has two classes in each Year group and a total of nearly 300 students in the fourteen classes. The Staffpupil ratio is very favorable with smaller class sizes and Teacher Assistants in each class in each of the first four years of schooling. This is designed to aid personalize education and maximize learning opportunities at a boy's point of need, in his academic program. Mosman Prep fosters a comprehensive approach to education that emphasizes thinking, valuing doing and occurs in the context of a personalized, Christian philosophy. This enables our boys to excel in academic and sporting pursuits, and in a expansive range of expressive arts. External measures of academic triumph abound.
