Clifton Preparatory School, Nottingham Road is a private, co-educational day and boarding primary school located in the Nottingham Road area of the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands in South Africa.
History The school was founded in 1942 when a number of Clifton Durban boys moved to the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands over fears of danger during World War II.
Clifton has added Grade 000 and phased out Grade 8 which traditionally was a boys-only grade.
Boarding Clifton accepts boy and girl boarders from Grade 4 and offers boarding options, from full boarding to weekly and temporary boarding. Clifton is one of the few remaining independent preparatory schools in KwaZulu-Natal that offers full boarding to young children, with boarders coming from around the country and various Southern African countries.
Grounds The school has 60 hectares of land.
Notable alumni Craig Higginson – author The Hill. Pat Cilliers – Sharks rugby player. David Miller (South African cricketer) – Dolphins cricket player. Wayne Fyvie – Sharks rugby player.
