Inspired Education Group – excellence for every age and stage

With Wetherby Pembridge Senior opening in September, and new Pre-Prep classes arriving in 2026, Inspired Education Group now offers a continuous school journey for London students – and with a clear focus on academic excellence

This September, the Inspired Education Group is opening its state-of-the-art, co-educational senior school – Wetherby Pembridge – in London’s Kensington Olympia. Here, the best of traditional education will meet the future of learning. The school will enhance Inspired’s senior school offering in the UK, adding to the existing Wetherby Senior School in London and Reddam House School in Berkshire.

Meanwhile, in September 2026, Inspired is launching an exceptional Fulham Pre-Prep in a new location, and additional Pre-Prep classes at Wetherby Prep in Marylebone. This means three Wetherby Schools in three London locations, all with the same academic rigour and outstanding results. These additions ensure the central London offering will be available to more of the youngest learners , giving more choice to parents, with a continuity of academic excellence across all age groups.

Continuity in the learning journey offers many benefits for children, not least consistency of care and stability. Schools within Inspired have a full picture of each child, their family and their educational journey to date. The proximity of this group of leading independent schools across the capital ensures that students and their families benefit from enhanced connections and lifelong friendships within a supportive and active London learning community. They also have access to almost 15 acres of premium sporting facilities at Wetherby Pembridge Sports Ground Wood Lane.

As a part of the Inspired community, families gain many other benefits. They include opportunities for children to join Inspired’s renowned global camps, and potential exchanges across the 119 schools within the group. These prestigious schools span Europe, the Middle East, Africa, the Americas and Asia Pacific regions, and with an additional Inspired online school.

Inspired’s schools are recognised worldwide for their academic and co-curricular excellence and for producing exceptional outcomes. Last year, for example, students received 114 scholarship offers and places at prestigious universities around the world, including Imperial College London, University of Cambridge, Durham University, Princeton, NYU and Bocconi, Milan.

Inspired has been consistently recognised over the past 15 years within education. Its UK schools have received a host of prominent industry awards, including the ISA Junior School of the Year (Fulham Prep), Tatler Prep School of the Year (Wetherby Prep), Talk Education Innovation in Education award (Pembridge Hall), Best Company Award at the Young Enterprise competition (Wetherby Senior), and Tatler’s Lifetime Achievement Award (Mark Snell, UK Director of Education and formerly Headmaster at Wetherby School).

“With the opening of Wetherby Pembridge in September and the new Pre-Prep offerings at Fulham Prep and Wetherby Prep in the year to follow, we are excited to be expanding our offering across London to provide access to the highest academic standards and curriculum rigour at all levels, from Early Years to Sixth Form,” says Kathleen Mitchell, UK CEO of Inspired Education.

“Being part of the Inspired group of schools means that students benefit from a robust, holistic curriculum formed around Inspired’s three pillars of modern education: academic excellence, sports, and performing and creative arts, with dedicated, highly qualified specialist teachers who deliver outstanding education,” she adds.

“At Inspired Education, our focus on the continuous learning journey helps to provide a full picture of each child and their education journey to date,” says Mark Snell, UK Director of Education. “We make it our mission to know and care for each child and have their best interests at the heart of everything we do.”
