The Proprietors' Welcome

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 the warm and welcoming family atmosphere. The site of the Old Vicarage School impresses with the beauty of the building and its gardens. More impressive is the excellent academic, physical and social achievements of the children.

The secret of the school’s success is not only in the care and attention of our wonderful staff but also in the way the older children care for and nurture the younger ones as soon as they arrive.
