Queen's College Preparatory School

first for Girls

Welcome to Queen's College Preparatory School

At QCPS, we believe that every child flourishes when she is known, nurtured and encouraged to be boldly curious. Our school, nestled in the heart of Portland Place in central London, is a joyful community where girls feel confident to explore.

With a long and proud heritage, and the added benefit of being linked to Queen's College, London one of Spear's top 100 independent schools in the world, we equip girls with the knowledge, character and curiosity they need to thrive - wherever their senior school ambitions may lead them. Our commitment to exceptional pastoral care comes from our knowledge that when a child feels happy, safe and supported, she can achieve anything.
