Welcome from the Headmaster

I am delighted to be joining the School at this exciting time as we merge with Bryanston. 

The merger brings new opportunities, ambitious aspirations and a clear vision for the future. Now as part of the Bryanston family, our Prep school will have access to world-class facilities from music, drama, D&T, sport and more.

The Bryanston Knighton House ethos is to truly understand how each child learns by giving them time, nurture and inspiration to find their passion for a love of learning.

Outdoor adventure and embracing the wonders of our beautiful Dorset countryside setting, is woven into the fabric of our curriculum alongside a commitment to teach empathy, kindness and compassion at all ages.

The strength of the merger between Bryanston and Knighton House is a clear vision: to guide pupils as they develop into confident, curious, open-minded and kind members of society. We do this by enabling creative and rigorous thinking. What they will have learned here matters, but how they learned it matters more.

Learning is a lifelong journey for us all. There is a culture at Bryanston Knighton House that celebrates the individual spirit within each child. This will always be at the centre of our aspirations for every boy and girl. Our job is to nurture, encourage and guide every pupil to realise their own abilities and passions. 

As your headmaster, I am deeply committed to leading a school where each child will look back at their time with us and say with their hand on their heart – "I loved my school days at Bryanston Knighton House."

A warm welcome awaits you and I look forward to meeting you and your family.

Will Lockett
Headmaster of Bryanston Knighton House
