Cothill is currently part of the Prep Schools Trust, a family of 8 flourishing schools bound by shared values and united in the pursuit of delivering exceptional academic performance and pastoral care in a beautiful setting. Collectively, they offer a set of distinctive and happy environments within which all pupils are given the opportunity and skills to develop and progress with confidence.

The Prep Schools Trust

In September 2025, Cothill will join seven other schools to form the Radley Schools Group. These schools are Radley College, Barfield School, Beeston Hall, Chandlings Prep, Kitebrook Prep, Mowden Hall and West Hill Park School. An eight-school merger is a first in the independent sector which the group says will offer ‘greater security and access to resource and expertise, and a louder voice’. Each school will retain its independent identity and market.
