West House School

Our annual WHOBA Cricket Match returns to Richmond Hill on Sunday 5th July, with play starting at 1:00 pm. 🏏

We'd be delighted to welcome former pupils, parents and friends of West House for an afternoon of cricket and good company. Players of all abilities are encouraged to take part, and spectators are equally welcome to come along and enjoy the occasion.

A fixture that has become a much-loved part of the West House calendar, we look forward to seeing familiar faces and making new memories together.

The Headmaster's lawn has taken on a new role, becoming a putting green for our Year 6 pupils! ⛳

A wonderful way to enjoy the sunshine and make lasting memories before their next exciting chapter begins.

Team West House! 🏏🌟

The achievements of various teams has been celebrated recently with some incredible performances both on the pitch and in the classroom!!👏

Our U11 team are through to the regional finals of the WCSA Cricket and will represent Warwickshire County at Shrewsbury School next week! Also in cricket, our U10 team were undefeated at the RGS Cricket Festival losing only three wickets across four matches!🥇🏆

Our Senior Quiz Team progressed through the highly competitive Area Heats and overall came an impressive 9th place in the Quiz Club Mathematics National Championships which is an unbelievable achievement. The maths on show was of the highest quality! 🔢🌟

However, the biggest team of all is ‘Team West House’ and we never underestimate our favourite moment of the week, celebrating all the success of the boys in our weekly West House Way assemblies. It’s always an honour to receive such a reward for recognition of those who follow the morals and values of the school! 🎉🙌

Well done Team West House School!✨🥳

Speech and Drama Success!🎤🎭🏆

Our pupils achieved outstanding success at the recent Leamington Spa Speech and Drama Festival, bringing home an impressive collection of top awards!🏅🏆

Their talent, confidence and dedication were recognised across a range of categories, including public speaking, verse reading, poetry and prose! 🗣️🌟

Beyond the awards, the boys thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to perform, developing their confidence and communication skills while sharing their enthusiasm for drama! Their passion, creativity and commitment shone through in every performance and we are incredibly proud of their achievements! 🙌🎉

This time last year, our Reception children were filling their Dream Jars with hopes and wishes before their exciting move to Year 1.

From imaginative adventures to simple everyday joys, each idea was unique, heartfelt, and wonderfully individual - just like the children themselves.

Looking back on moments like these reminds us just how quickly the years fly by!

Even though our Open Day has now taken place, we’d be delighted to arrange a personal one-to-one tour so you can see life at the school in action.

West House School is an independent preparatory school for boys aged 4 to 11, focused on developing confident, well-rounded pupils through strong values and a supportive learning environment.

We are also home to West House Nursery, a co-educational setting for children from 6 months, providing a nurturing start to their learning journey.

For over 125 years, we’ve combined high academic standards with a warm, family atmosphere where children are encouraged to grow, achieve, and thrive.

📆 We have limited places available for September 2026.
📞 Please call 0121 440 4097 to book a one-to-one tour.

We’re looking forward to welcoming families tomorrow for our Open Morning at West House School.

Our classrooms, corridors and playground will be full of the energy, curiosity and enthusiasm that define daily life here - shaped by ‘The West House Way’, which was recently recognised by ISI as a significant strength of the school.

It’s a chance to see the school as it really is: pupils learning, laughing, collaborating, and growing in confidence across a broad and balanced curriculum that extends well beyond the classroom.

If you’re joining us tomorrow, we can’t wait to meet you and show you what makes West House such a special community.
