St Bernard's Preparatory School is a Roman Catholic independent prep school in Slough, serving boys and girls from age 2 to 11. It has nursery classes, non-selective admissions and a small-to-mid-sized roll of around 200 pupils.
Its ISI inspection in February 2026 found that relevant standards were met, including safeguarding. The inspection summary says leaders promote a caring Catholic environment where compassion and ambition are valued, with governors and leaders working together to keep policies implemented effectively. Its age range gives families a route from nursery-age provision through the end of primary education within one independent setting.
