Headmaster’s Welcome Stephen Mulryne

Welcome to Terrington Hall School. We are an independent coeducational Prep School set in an idyllic location in the heart of the Howardian Hills, just north of York.

Primarily a day school with the option of flexible and weekly boarding, Terrington Hall provides an excellent all-round education for boys and girls aged 3-13. We blend forward-thinking learning with a traditional prep school ethos. Our emphasis is on developing happy, well-mannered individuals with the self-belief and resilience to pursue their talents and interests, wherever they may lie.

The high level of individual care and attention extended to every child is supported by small class sizes, an excellent staff/pupil ratio, specialist teaching staff and strong pastoral care. Terrington Hall provides a nurturing yet purposeful environment, in which children develop a lifelong love of learning which they carry with them throughout their school days and beyond.

What's special about Terrington

  • Terrington Hall is not tied to any senior school. It is a truly independent prep school.
  • The whole effort of the staff and school is directed at preparing each child for entry into the senior school which best suits his or her abilities, sensibilities and interests.
  • As a ‘standalone’ independent coeducational prep school (3-13), Terrington Hall is unique in York and North Yorkshire for also offering a boarding and flexi-boarding facility to its pupils from Year 3
  • Most pupils will at some point in their career with us choose to sample the fun, friendly, family-style boarding on offer on either an occasional or flexi-boarding basis.
