Michèle Finnegan

Head of Hurstpierpoint College Pre-Prep School

Welcome to the Hurst Pre-Prep School web pages. Here you will see that the well-being of the children lies at the heart of everything we do.

In summary, we:

• aim to provide a stimulating, safe and happy environment in which the young children in our care will flourish.
• nurture, encourage, praise and reward excellent manners and good behaviour.
• see each child as a very special individual and so we identify and encourage their greatest strengths whilst being aware of and supporting areas of difficulty.
• have high quality resources and access to the outstanding facilities on campus.
• have space to run and play in a safe environment.
• have high expectations of our pupils and we aim to produce happy, self-confident, articulate, literate and numerate children who are interested in the world around them, but we never lose sight of their age and their right for a happy and fulfilling childhood.

Please come and visit the school; I will be delighted to meet you, talk about your child and share with you what the school can offer.

Hurst - a viewpoint:

"Hurst Pre-Prep is a kind caring happy place where the children feel a sense of belonging and feel valued for themselves. They have a varied and interesting curriculum with specialist teachers for many subjects. They are challenged appropriately and encouraged to achieve the highest standards."
