Creating Confident Children

At The Wallace High School Preparatory Department and Pre-Prep, we pride ourselves on offering exceptional primary and pre-preparatory education in a warm, inclusive environment.

Our vision, Creating Confident Children, shapes a school experience where pupils are encouraged to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. We follow a holistic, whole-child approach that balances high academic standards with strong pastoral care, tailored learning support, and a deep commitment to developing each child’s confidence, and creativity.

Children benefit from a rich and varied curriculum that includes extensive sporting, musical, and artistic opportunities, alongside an exciting outdoor learning programme that promotes curiosity, resilience, and wellbeing. Our distinctive location affords pupils rich opportunities for outdoor education, complemented by direct access to the extensive resources of the Grammar School.

Underpinned by our CORE values—Commitment, Opportunity, Respect, and Excellence—Wallace Prep offers a nurturing, future-focused education where every child is known, valued, and inspired.

We hope this website gives you a glimpse of the vibrant life at our school—but nothing compares to experiencing it in person. We’d be delighted to welcome you for a visit and show you all that Wallace Prep has to offer. To arrange a tour, please contact the office on 028 9267 2311 or email prep@wallacehigh.net.


We look forward to welcoming you soon.

Mrs Anna Patterson
Head of Preparatory Department

Yesterday the girls' hockey team took part in the Ulster hockey McCloy Cup Qualifiers, playing seven matches against a range of teams from the Lisburn area. ๐Ÿ‘ Throughout the competition, they recorded a mix of wins, draws and losses, but most importantly, they demonstrated outstanding determination, teamwork and resilience in every game. A big thank you to Mr McBride for generously giving his time to coach and support the team. Well done, girls - you should be incredibly proud of your efforts and achievements! ๐Ÿ’ช
What a fabulous session at Forest School! We made the most of the calm, dry conditions and embarked on some den building. Fantastic team work on display not to mention an abundance of creativity! Everyone had a great time and there was even some time to sit back, relax and do some squirrel spotting! ๐Ÿฟ๏ธ โ›บ๏ธ ๐ŸŒณ
Pre-Prep are enjoying their gymnastics sessions in @salto_gymnastics_ni this term. The children are showing impressive balance, coordination and strength. Through playful movement and exploration they are building skills quickly while having fun!

Our P5-7s had a fantastic session yesterday with @athleticsni !

We finished strong with some Soft Javelin Throws and those always-exciting Relay Races! ๐Ÿ Huge thanks to Athletics NI for such a brilliant day of skills and smiles. Who knows, we might have the next Olympian in our midst! ๐Ÿ… #SchoolSport #AthleticsNI #ActiveKids #YouthAthletics #TeamWork

Pre-Prep have been celebrating Chinese New Year this week! ๐Ÿด We have been celebrating the year of the Horse. Pre-Prep had fun finding out that they were born in either the year of the Ox or the Tiger.
The girls were back out playing netball this week at the Netball Ni Blitz. It was a full day of netball and the girls played their hearts out. They are a wonderful group of team players, developing their skills every time they play.
