What The Good Schools Guide says..
Over our tasty beef curry at lunch, one senior girl stated that 'I want to stay to year 11 because I will miss my friends', whilst another gave approval to iPad based lessons which are 'quite cool' and to an assembly where the head tucked into a tin of dog food in order to explain that one shouldn’t judge a book by its cover.

What the school says...
Yateley Manor offers pupils an inspirational educational journey that will prepare them for their chosen senior school and provide them with the tools to build successful adult lives.
Innovative, enthusiastic and committed teachers provide the framework for your child’s educational, cultural and social development. Nurtured in a warm, friendly and safe environment within a unique and supportive family atmosphere, children are given new experiences to explore, building confidence and stimulating their desire to learn.
A full programme enriches the educational experience giving every child the opportunity to find talents and strengths. Chess is an important part of Yateley Manor’s programme with children learning to play from an early age. There are many activities to try, including modern dance and ballet in the specially equipped Studio and music technology in the new Music School. Horse riding, masterchef and photography in art are also very popular. Sport is enhanced by impressive facilities.
At the heart of the school is the importance of strong relationships between children and adults. In a community that embraces a breadth of cultures where all relationships are based upon respect, children learn to appreciate the need to be courteous, considerate and to use common sense. They are encouraged to be creative and courageous as they develop into confident individuals, with a strong foundation for a happy and balanced life. Pupils can only achieve this once they have been given the tools and the self-belief. ...Read more
