WELCOME FROM THE HEADHome from Home

The Old Vicarage School is a family-run, independent day school. Both boys and girls aged 3 – 11 years of age can register and attend. Located in the beautiful suburb of Darley Abbey, the Old Vicarage School site is safe, secure and has both multi use sports areas and it own woodland. There is something very special about our small school.

It is a ‘home away from home’ and parents are comforted by…

“Pupils have high self-esteem, show mature levels of self discipline, and extremely confident, yet possess, not a hint of arrogance.”

ISI, Nov 22

“My child’s confidence has grown enormously,,, she is becoming a well-rounded, quietly confident child”

ISI, Nov 22

“OVS was such a wonderful, nurturing and magical experience for our son, one for which we will always be grateful. Thank you for the memories.”
