Aldenham Prep Riyadh offers exceptional British Education for boys and girls from age 3 to 11 mirroring exactly what happens in our Aldenham UK School, which is famous for its focus on an excellent all round education.

The children also benefit directly from being part of a larger, global, organisation. Aldenham Prep Riyadh is directly linked with Aldenham Prep UK and we will always make the most of the opportunities for the children to experience that international connection.
We look forward to welcoming you to the Aldenham Family.”
