Together we’re extraordinary
Lyceum School is part of the Dukes Education family of schools and educators, brought together by a common purpose: to give children the foundations for an extraordinary life.
About Dukes Education
Dukes Education is a family of schools, teachers, learners, and parents connected by our pursuit of an extraordinary life for every member of our community.
Our philosophy is to support each individual to live with purpose, to encourage a love of learning, and to act as a team. All of this is underpinned by a quality standard that runs through everything we do.
We believe that education is a journey to be enjoyed and shared at every stage of life, unlocking possibilities for every student.

The Dukes Village
We create clusters of nurseries and schools in village locations to ensure that families can enjoy the option of an all-through education journey with Dukes Education within their local area.
Continuity and Confidence
As students prepare to transition from prep school to senior school at Year 7, our guaranteed entry policy offers a seamless progression within the Dukes family of senior schools, subject only to the availability of a place and a child’s ability to thrive in the ethos and curriculum, and without the need to sit traditional school entrance exams such as the 11+.
Guaranteed Placement, Tailored Support
Dukes Education supports each child’s journey to senior school, working with families to find the right school; one that matches their unique strengths and aspirations.
Our commitment to providing a guaranteed place at a Dukes Education senior school allows students to focus on their personal and academic development instead of spending precious time preparing for school entrance exams and the added pressure that entails.
For families applying to selective senior schools, our prep schools provide thorough guidance, tailored 11+ exam preparation and exceptional pastoral support to ensure that every student is ready to perform at their best.
This approach ensures a confident and smooth transition to senior school for all children, nurturing lifelong learners within the supportive framework of Dukes Education.
Early acceptance
If a family decides their child will not sit the 11+ entrance test, we are usually able to confirm acceptance to a Dukes senior school in Year 5. Early acceptance offers families peace of mind, allowing children to enjoy their final years at prep school and focus on a positive transition to senior school.

The Dukes Club
The Dukes Club is an extraordinary community of parents, pupils, staff and alumni that connects families across all the Dukes Education nurseries, schools and colleges. It is a space to learn, network, take advantage of exciting opportunities and amazing rewards, and make new friends. If you are a parent with a child at a Dukes Education school, college or nursery, we warmly invite you to join. As a growing family of education settings, our scale and scope enable us to provide you with exclusive access to a huge array of opportunities that would simply be beyond the reach of any single school.
The Dukes Foundation
The Dukes Foundation was born out of the belief that a person’s early years are their most formative – the ones that shape us into who we’ll be. With our roots in education, we know how vital it is for young people to have the right support, encouragement, and opportunities during this important chapter in their lives.
We want to harness the powerful and uniting spirit of Dukes Education to make a meaningful difference in ways far beyond the boundaries of our organisation. To create a world of inspiration. To see through adversity, to see the potential in every person and to find opportunity in every corner of the world.
Through grant-making and partnerships, we proudly support life-changing charities and organisations who share our ambition. From education and financial assistance, to health, well-being and environmental causes, we can create sparks that can ignite brighter futures.
