The Daiglen School


Our School motto "Perstare et Praestare" – "Persevere and Excel" - describes the attitude we foster.
The Daiglen School is a small, friendly preparatory school for boys and girls aged 3 to 11 years. The school is rich in history and tradition and our community is based on clear moral values of courtesy, respect, endeavour, industry and integrity. The school is built around an elegant Victorian house with much of its stained glass and cornices intact. Modern features include a new gymnasium and art room, a fully equipped ICT suite and a purpose built science laboratory. It is pleasantly situated on the borders of Epping Forest and is well served by public transport. At the Daiglen School, we believe that it is in the child’s best interests for education to be a close partnership between home and school. If, having visited this website, you feel that our school would suit your child, or if you would like to know more about us, please make arrangements to visit us. Prospective parents are always welcome.

“Daiglen is a truly unique school where the core values of academic excellence and good behaviour are still important. This winning combination takes place in an intimate and nurturing environment where each child matters. Daiglen has succeeded in surpassing my expectations in these early vital years of my children’s education. I am consistently impressed by the quality of teaching my children receive at Daiglen. They are both challenged and encouraged. The staff are dedicated and at all times professional. It appears to be a place where every child can reach their full potential. Daiglen pupils are a credit to their school. The school should be proud of its culture, which encourages such high standards of behaviour seen in so few schools today”
