The Prebendal School is a private preparatory school in Chichester, situated adjacent to the Chichester Cathedral precinct. It is a boarding and day school educating the cathedral choristers. The school has ancient origins as the medieval cathedral song school at the thirteenth-century school house in West Street.[2]
In 2020, The Telegraph named The Prebendal School as one of the best-value independent schools in the country.[3]
In January 2023, the school announced that its recent ISI inspection in November had found the school to be Excellent in all areas.[4]
