Partnership
At Princess Frederica, we believe education is a partnership between school and parents. For this reason, we encourage active relationships with families, which lead to higher standards and well-being for all the children in the school. We provide a stimulating environment where children are nurtured and challenged to achieve high standards in all areas of their learning. We do hope our website gives you an insight into what makes Princess Frederica a special place to learn and grow.
