Hi All, I'm currently looking for a suitable prep school for my son and have narrowed it down to ORLEY FARM, REDDIFORD and BUCKINGHAM COLLEGE PREP. Has anyone any experience of any of these, in particular BCP? Ideally would like to get value for money and not just an avarage prep. Advice greatly appreciated.

My brothers 2 children go/have been to Orley Farm. Incredibly happy with it and the eldest has just started at Aldenham. Buckingham College prep seems quite strict and small. not very modern at all. IMO, go for Orley

Thanks Norrice. That's useful to know. Know quite a few people who have sent children to Orley Farm and are happy but seems harder to get into, + over 1000 dearer than the other 2 and is until 13+. Had no idea BCP was like that. Do you have any ideas on Reddiford? Thanks again.

I think all are good, Reddiford seems the most modern and friendly maybe? Orley is def great
