Choosing a school for your child is a significant decision. Coogee Boys’ Preparatory School offers a compelling combination of academic rigour, character development, and sporting and social skills, all within a nurturing, caring and supportive environment. It’s a place where young boys can thrive, learn and grow into responsible, well-rounded individuals ready to face the future confidently. Most importantly, they have fun. Happy children thrive in happy classrooms where learning is fun – an atmosphere we create daily at Coogee Prep.
Coogee Boys’ Preparatory School is a small school with a long history that stands out as an exceptional choice for parents seeking the best educational foundation for their son’s Primary school education. With a legacy of excellence and a commitment to nurturing young minds, the school has been educating boys for 110 years. It is unique as it has only had three Headmasters since its beginning.
The school fosters a holistic approach to education that focuses on academia, sport, the arts (including drama and performance) and a wide array of co-curricular activities, incursions and excursions that provide a broad experience inside and outside the classroom.
Our staff provide a supportive, nurturing and challenging environment where students are encouraged to work hard to reach their full potential. Small class sizes allow for tailored instruction, facilitating a deeper connection between students and teachers. Coogee Prep has a strong track record of academic achievement, with a NAPLAN ranking that places it in NSW’s Top 5 independent boys’ Primary schools.
The school’s commitment to academic excellence, character development and a well-rounded education ensures students are well-prepared for future challenges in higher education and life. Solid values and the strong framework of ‘Gentleman Scholar and Sportsman’ ensure that the boys realise the importance of integrity, respect and responsibility, which allows them to have a give-it-a-go mentality where effort is regarded as much as success.
While private schools come with a financial investment, the benefits they offer in terms of academic quality, individualised attention and early exposure to a rich and diverse educational experience can have a lasting and positive impact on a child’s educational journey.
