When Alpha Preparatory School opened its doors in 1895, the world was a very different place. We have often spoken to the children attending Alpha to place themselves in the mind-set of a young Victorian child, to consider just how different life in 2025 actually is. Yes, we still teach the fundamentals of the three ‘Rs’ of reading, writing and arithmetic (without the Victorian abacuses of course) but we now have laptops, ipads, interactive whiteboards, electricity throughout and heating without open fires! No, we do not have birch wood canes or chalk boards and easels or slate on which the children would write. What has carried on consistently, however, since the school was founded 130 years ago is that we still hold our school rule, which is to ‘Be kind!’ close to all that we do at Alpha.
