We are delighted to share that Fairfield Prep School has been ‘Highly Commended’ in the Most Creative Learning Through Play category by the judges at the Muddy Stilettos Best Schools Awards 2023!

The awards, which had over 400 entries across 13 categories, provide the opportunity for schools to showcase what makes them unique, and how they truly deliver for the children in their care.

The approach at Fairfield ensures that pupils have fun while learning, which is not only vital for their wellbeing, but it lays the foundations for building lifelong skills. By providing hands-on, creative experiences through play, children learn important skills required to become confident, empathetic and empowered leaders and team players.

Andrew Earnshaw, Headmaster at Fairfield Prep School said; “Outdoor and creative learning can develop future leaders by providing children with a well-rounded education outside of the traditional classroom, enabling them to think independently, make informed decisions and understand their impact on their surroundings.”

“We’ve been so pleased to see our pupils take advantage of the resources and learning that we have carefully honed over the years, and how those shared experiences, both creatively and in the great outdoors, help to form our pupils into conscientious and responsible young adults. It’s wonderful that this has been recognised by the judges at the Muddy Stilettos Awards!”
