Vision & Values

At Bowdon Preparatory School, our vision is to be recognised as a leading Prep school for girls, providing unforgettable learning experiences which inspire our girls to believe in themselves and to persevere and succeed in all that they do.

Each pupil can give you a real, personal example of how they live our school motto each day – believe, persevere, succeed – it is embedded deep within our school culture. This is truly what makes Bowdon Prep so unique.

At BPS we pride ourselves on the diverse and inclusive community we have developed by living our motto day in and day out. We tell the girls to “Be Bowdon” which means “Be You” as we truly value and celebrate individual identity, character and qualities. Our experienced team continually pushes themselves to achieve the best outcomes for every child.

Be enthusiastic. Be caring. Be focused. Be Bowdon!
