Dragon aims
And ethos

Reaching for the sun.

The Dragon has proudly been at the forefront of Prep School education in the UK since it was founded in 1877. The School remains true to the educational ethos of the founder, Skipper Lynam, whilst preparing young Dragons to be global citizens of the twenty first century. The values of Kindness, Courage and Respect are instilled into all Dragons.

The aim of the Dragon is:
To inspire, encourage and develop free-thinking, confident young people who reach for the sun.
