Crescent School, Rugby

Crescent School is a Private preparatory coeducational day School for pupils aged 3 – 11. It is in the Bilton area of Rugby, Warwickshire, England.[1] It was informally started in 1946, and founded in 1948 as a school for the children of Rugby School masters. It was housed in Rugby School buildings. Having opened its doors to children living in Rugby and the surrounding district, it outgrew its premises and, in 1988, purchased a purpose-built school in Bilton, a residential suburb approximately 2 miles south of Rugby town centre.

There are 167 pupils, including children aged 3–4 in the Pathfinders nursery school. Since 2017, the school has been a part of the Princethorpe Foundation, alongside secondary school Princethorpe College, primary school Crackley Hall and nursery Little Crackers. The headmaster, Joe Thackway is a member of Independent Association of Preparatory Schools and the school is a member of the Independent Schools Council, having undergone Independent Schools Inspectorate and Ofsted inspections.
