John McArthur

As Director of Sport at Eaton Square Prep School, I am passionate about fostering a positive, inclusive, and high-achieving sporting culture. My role involves overseeing the development and delivery of the school’s sports programme, ensuring that every pupil has the opportunity to participate, compete, and grow—both on and off the field.

We pride ourselves on offering a wide variety of sports to suit all interests and ability levels. From competitive fixtures to recreational activities, I work closely with pupils, staff, and external coaches to create opportunities for everyone to engage and excel.

What I value most about Eaton Square is its diverse and international community. Pupils and staff learn from one another, embracing different perspectives and cultures. This inclusive ethos is reflected in our approach to sport and the way we deliver our lessons.

I believe that physical education plays a vital role in supporting pupils’ physical, mental, and social development, contributing positively to their overall academic success. My aim is for physical education to lay the foundation for lifelong health and wellbeing, while helping children build essential skills and adopt a positive attitude towards the challenges they face.
