Ardvreck Prep School, known for its sense of adventure and creativity, is surrounded by breathtaking Perthshire countryside. Located in the heart of rural Perthshire and within an hour’s reach of Glasgow and Edinburgh, Ardvreck is a hidden gem of a boarding and day preparatory school, offering a unique, educational experience to boys and girls from the age of 3 to 13.


This is most definitely the school every grown-up wishes they had attended as a child. It’s where kindness, courtesy and good manners are at the forefront of every human interaction. It’s where academia and adventure are of equal importance and where good humour and fun permeate every undertaking. 


Now, any school can provide excellent academic rigour, a strong pastoral ethos and a broad co-curricular programme, all of which we do very well indeed. What sets this school apart is most definitely the people, the characters, the personalities who are somehow, at Ardvreck, a rather rare and dedicated breed!


All visitors gasp at the awe-inspiring views of doorstep Munros as they make their way up the school’s sweeping drive. Their attention is soon diverted to the even more thrilling spectacle of laughing, be-kilted and wellied children hanging out of trees, hiding in Dens or building dams in the burn which flows down the Headmistress’ lawn. 


Pupils at Ardvreck have a reputation for having plenty of commitment, resilience and determination. They are encouraged to cast their nets wide, to have big dreams and be ambitious. From age 3, in Little Ardvreck, the children have access to acres of outdoor space for exciting forest learning, sport and play; these factors make our curriculum so creative and thrilling that young minds can’t help but have a tenacious thirst for learning.


Ardvreck has an unbelievable team of staff, they are the movers and shakers, optimists, can doers, smilers and who all care, beyond belief, about the education and wellbeing of every single child in our school.


Well aware of the day to day juggling of family and working life, the school’s aim is to be the supportive hand in your team. With local transport options to facilitate your early morning sprints to the office and for meetings that drag on into the evening, flexible boarding packages for Enid Blyton-esque sleepovers when you need them and, importantly, monthly fee plans which make sense for today’s modern family.


This is not just a school; this is Ardvreck School. Here the children are prepared to be resilient and well equipped, with a daring spirit to succeed and to overcome anything that is thrown at them on their life journeys; they are courageous pioneers.


It will come as no surprise that in recent years over 85% of their pupils have received scholarships to some of the top UK Senior Schools as Headteachers are very keen to enlist Ardvreck pupils, including Eton, Sherborne, Uppingham and St Mary’s, Ascot.
