Broomwood Prep – Boys
11+ Admissions Guide 2026

Northcote Lodge School is an independent day school for boys, situated on the edge of Wandsworth Common in South West London. Founded in September 1993 as a sister school to Broomwood Hall, it is now part of the Northwood Schools group under the proprietorship of Dukes Education. The school aims to provide an enjoyable, inspiring and well-rounded education that focuses on developing the whole child, preparing boys not only for the next stage of their education but for life beyond the classroom. It seeks to offer all the benefits of a prep school education whilst allowing pupils to remain at home with their families. Pupils come from a range of diverse professional family backgrounds within a five-mile radius of the school. The school supports pupils with a variety of needs, including those with special educational needs and disabilities, those identified as the most able, and pupils for whom English is an additional language, ensuring that every child is well supported throughout their time at the school.

Older pupils may bring a phone to school for safety when travelling independently, but it must be switched off on arrival and handed in for the day. Phones are only returned at the end of the day for communication about collection or transport home. While smartphones are permitted, a basic 'brick' phone is recommended wherever possible.
