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:

"This is just a short note to express great pleasure in the way in which my grand-daughter has come on since joining Hurst. We have found her to be very happy there and the teachers have all been superb. Not only that she has learned so much in just the one term that we are really grateful for having found such a brilliant school."
Grandparent of child in Reception.
