WELCOME TO REGENT'S PARK PREPARATORY SCHOOL
North Bridge House Regent’s Park is becoming Alleyn’s Regent’s Park.
Find us at the edge of Regent’s Park – our very own London playground – where academic challenge meets a supportive school community. As we transition to Alleyn’s Regent’s Park, we remain committed to a knowledge-rich and purposeful curriculum, ensuring children aged 4-13 achieve top-tier academic outcomes. With a wealth of character-building experiences beyond the classroom and compassionate staff guiding every child’s individual journey, we continue to provide outstanding preparation for future success.
BESPOKE PREPARATION FOR FUTURE PATHWAYS
From a nurturing start to school life in The Nest, through an increasingly rigorous, specialist taught curriculum (incorporating everything from Mandarin to Politics, Philosophy and Economics), we thoroughly prepare pupils for the senior school best suited to their individual strengths and interests – expertly facilitating all 11+, 13+, or through school journeys.
MORE THAN JUST AN EDUCATION
With enriching co-curricular initiatives such as the ACE Programme and the Orchestra Project, close to 40 extra-curricular clubs, and an ISI (Independent Schools Inspectorate) commended programme of trips, we offer pupils a wholly inspiring experience, with constant opportunities to excel and find their own ‘True North’.
WE WOULD LOVE TO SHOW YOU AROUND
Join us at an Open Day to see the school in action, hear from the Head, and meet our brilliant staff and pupils. As we transition to Alleyn’s Regent’s Park, this is a great opportunity to learn more about our exciting next chapter. Private tours are available if you cannot attend an Open Morning or if you are looking for a mid-year or immediate vacancy.
We are here to personalise your tour experience.

We have been celebrating all week for Culture Week 2025, as our students embraced the stories, traditions, and identities that make our community so special. Throughout the week, student-led assemblies explored folklore from around the world, House Competitions put cultural knowledge to the test, and form-time quizzes sparked conversations about different traditions. Lessons took on a global twist, with activities that made us all appreciate the diversity woven into our school community.
Yesterday’s Bake Sale raised £230 for our chosen charity, @showracismtheredcard, with an incredible spread of homemade treats from various countries. And today, we wrapped off the week with the Culture Week Celebration Event, featuring incredible performances, short presentations, and live House Competitions. Our students arrived in non-school uniform, proudly wearing flag colours or traditional clothing, and together we raised a fantastic £311, bringing our total to £541 for an important cause.
Culture Week is more than just an event, it’s a reminder of our ongoing commitment to celebrating and embracing diversity every day. 🌍

Science is all about transformation!
For this year’s British Science Week theme, ‘Change and Adapt,’ our pupils have been exploring the fascinating ways living things evolve to survive in their environments. They have been learning how animals use camouflage, through disruptive colouration and disguise, to blend in and stay safe. Putting their new knowledge into action, they then hide butterflies around the Elm classroom, bringing the importance of science to life in the most exciting way! 🌿🔍

Yesterday, the iconic Alleyn’s cornflower found new roots at our Hampstead Nursery and Pre-Prep campuses!
Our Pre-Reception - Year 2 pupils teamed up across both campuses to plant their seeds side by side, marking a special occasion as we look forward to our exciting journey towards becoming Alleyn’s Hampstead Nursery and Junior School. A beautiful symbol of growth, unity, and the bright future ahead! Now we watch as these seeds, and our future, thrive! 🌱💙

We took learning to the high seas, as Year 9 spent the day aboard the Fortescue Green Pioneer Vessel in Canary Wharf, a dual-fuel ammonia-powered vessel on tour all the way from Singapore.
Aboard the vessel, our students had the unique opportunity to explore key areas, including the ammonia power system, engine room, and bridge. They were guided by the Chief Engineer, Chief Officer, and other staff, gaining invaluable insights into sustainable maritime practices. They also took part in hands-on sustainability challenges and first aid training on the main deck, and participated in a CPR workshop led by Atlantic Pacific International Rescue.
The Green Pioneer isn’t just a vessel, it’s a floating hub of innovation, demonstrating how sustainable solutions can be woven into everyday life at sea. And experiences like this highlight why sustainability isn’t just a concept, it’s a responsibility. Understanding it in action is the first step towards making a real impact. Not your average school day, but definitely one to remember! We were one of only a few schools to tour the vessel, making this an exciting opportunity for our students. ⛴️

We had the most magical time celebrating World Book Day at Nursery and Pre-Prep today!
The sun was shining, and our little ones brought their favourite book characters to life with the most adorable costumes. Pre-Prep’s Costume Parade was full of creativity and excitement, whilst Nursery dressed up and even got creative making their own bookmarks. A perfect day to celebrate the joy of reading and storytelling.

With the sun making a lovely appearance, our Pre-prep pupils had an exciting day at @zsllondonzoo last week for their transition event, getting to know their future teachers from @nbhregentspark and preparing for their next big adventure this September!
With a scavenger hunt to complete and plenty of incredible animals to see, the trip was a great way to learn, explore, and start feeling at home with some familiar faces from their new school.
We loved seeing their curiosity and confidence grow - September can’t come soon enough! 💛

We are thrilled to announce that North Bridge House Regent’s Park will be joining the Alleyn’s Schools Group, becoming Alleyn’s Regent’s Park in September 2025. Following this, Hampstead will join the Alleyn’s family in September 2026. This exciting development, through @cognitaschools, marks the first time since 1619 that Alleyn’s renowned excellence will extend beyond Dulwich.
We are two schools closely aligned in our aim to offer a truly holistic education, bringing together academic study, co-curricular activities, and pastoral care so that every pupil can be “all they can be”: kind, happy, inspired, and ready to make a meaningful impact on the world. Our partnership blends the strengths of both institutions, equipping our communities with a holistic Alleyn’s curriculum that focuses on leadership, growth, and character development.
The synergy between North Bridge House’s motto, “Find Your True North,” and Alleyn’s “All We Can Be” reflects our shared commitment to creativity, individualism, and sustainability on every child’s journey. Together, we will provide a world-class education where every student thrives academically and personally. Welcome to @AlleynsRegentsPark!

Whilst on our Dubai Sports Tour, we swapped the pitches and courts for sand dunes on an unforgettable desert safari. Think high-speed dune bashing, sand-boarding wipeouts, and camel rides with some very relaxed new friends. Some of our students even had a close encounter with a majestic eagle, under the watchful eye of its keeper, of course!
As the sun set, our Canonbury and Senior Hampstead students kicked back with a BBQ feast, rounding off the night with a belly dancing show. From start to finish, it was an experience to remember - Dubai, you did not disappoint! 🇦🇪🐫🏜️
