Whole School Open Morning

Join us this May Friday 8th May 2026 | 9.30am – 11.30am

Choosing the right school for your child is one of the most important decisions you’ll make. At Chandlings, we believe that every stage — from those first discoveries in Nursery to the confident steps of Year 6 — is part of one continuous journey. Our education is rooted in the idea that strong early foundations allow each child to flourish as they grow.

In a setting where children feel secure, joyful and inspired, curiosity leads to understanding and confidence grows. Through meaningful experiences, supportive relationships and time spent in our beautiful natural surroundings, every day builds upon the last, helping every pupil to thrive now and in the years ahead.

Registration takes less than a minute.

A Leading Local Day Prep School

Chandlings is an established, co-educational day school serving Abingdon, Oxford, Radley and surrounding Oxfordshire villages.

In an increasingly digital world, Chandlings offers something different. Our 60-acre setting allows children to learn actively, outdoors and with confidence, while benefitting from strong teaching and clear academic direction for the future.

Families choose Chandlings because they want:

An education that balances joy with excellence
Small classes and individual attention
A strong sense of belonging
An environment that fosters curiosity
A clear pathway to respected senior schools

We champion childhood by promoting curiosity, endeavour and adventure.
