Message from
our Headteacher

It is with enormous shock and sadness that we announce the sudden death of Hannah Langdon on Thursday 4 September.  Hannah had been with us at Unicorn for twenty years. She was our Head of Early Years and an integral part of the Senior Leadership team.  Hannah was an inspirational teacher and her wisdom and experience, combined with a gentle sense of humour, made her an invaluable support to parents.

Hannah was the very best of Unicorn; dedicated, child centred and kind.  We will miss her more than words can say.

Breadth of Opportunity

A broad and creative education

We pride ourselves in preparing children for the ever-changing world ahead, cultivating not just academic prowess, but also confidence, resilience, adaptability, and the lasting virtues of kindness and compassion. We want them to think independently and creatively and not to be afraid of making mistakes along the way.

success is not just academic

Celebrating individual strengths

Unicorn is not just a place for academic excellence, but a vibrant hub of extra-curricular and enrichment activities for every child. From varied sports programs to arts and music sessions, our diverse range of activities aims to nurture well-rounded individuals. Rock band, virtual reality, chess, karate, cookery, Unicorn singers, dance, pottery, golf, padel, riding and sailing are just a few of the exciting opportunities awaiting your child.

“Both my children got places at their first choice of senior school, without any external tutoring. Great academic results without hothousing and friendships for life. A fantastic place.”

THE HEART OF THE COMMUNITY

A kind, caring family feel

We place an emphasis on the importance of building a sense of community, teaching children to appreciate diversity, and instilling values that promote compassion, empathy and respect.

For children to thrive both inside and outside the classroom, they need to know they matter and that they are fully supported. At Unicorn, the pastoral care and wellbeing of the children is our utmost priority. We provide a warm and nurturing environment along with the excellent relationships between children and staff which means that no child has any doubt the staff here will lend a safe and sympathetic ear whenever they may need it.
