    Word From The Head

    Julia Langford


    Welcome to The Ryleys School, a co-educational preparatory school for children from 12 months to 11 years, set in the heart of Cheshire.

    At The Ryleys School, we provide a perfectly balanced education for children of the 21st century by combining high academic standards along with an outstanding personal development and extra curricular programme. We offer a progressive education while maintaining the traditions and core values of a Preparatory school within our exceptional site and facilities.

    Through our programmes of study, and personal and outdoor education, we aim to engender a 'can do' attitude. We equip our pupils with key life skills such as problem solving, risk-taking, resilience and social and emotional awareness, all of which fosters a positive mental attitude and equips them for life. At The Ryleys School, we really do provide an all-rounded education.

    The Ryleys School is a friendly and nurturing environment where each child feels valued and important. We believe in identifying each child's talents, whether that be academic, musical, theatrical, artistic or sporting, and enable them to flourish in that particular area. Our detailed reporting and tracking procedures enable us to monitor progress and support children wherever needed, whether that be children who need challenging and stretching, or those who need extra assistance. Children receive specialist teaching from Nursery which means we are able to achieve the highest possible levels for our pupils who benefit from our stimulating and engaging curriculum.

    Please take the time to explore our website, but the best way to appreciate what The Ryleys School has to offer is to come and visit us, so please ring us to make an appointment and experience The Ryleys School atmosphere.

    I look forward to meeting you.

    Open Days, Visits & Events

    30-05-2026 - Personal Tour

    The best way to see our school is to reserve a personal tour. Each visit includes a physical tour of all parts of the school, a discussion about the syllabus taught and a chance for you to ask any questions you may have about The Ryleys School.

    We offer personal tours five days per week, during school hours and term time. We suggest that Early Years tours are scheduled for morning hours to give visitors the best opportunity to see the full setting in operation and to avoid important meal and nap times.

    Fantastic staff and a great community feel. He has excelled during his time at The Ryleys. He is more than prepared for his 11+ exams and we have no worries about getting in to his chosen senior schools. Most important of all, he is happy and still loves going to school.
