Heather Beeby
Head of Hurstpierpoint College Prep School

Welcome to the Hurst Prep School web pages.

I hope the pages provide a glimpse of the school at work and play and provide an insight into a school that works closely with parents to create a secure, supportive yet challenging environment in which our children can thrive.

We aim to enable our pupils to:

• Prepare for the academic challenges that lie ahead so that they are properly equipped to thrive in the next stage of their education and have started to become independent learners
• Realise their potential academically, creatively and in sport
• Develop moral values, an awareness of what it means to be a good citizen and respect for others
• Experience a diversity of academic, cultural and sporting opportunities so that they can discover and develop their own interests and talents
• Grow as individuals through developing self confidence, self reliance, an openness to new ideas and the ability to take initiative
• Enjoy being part of a happy, functioning community and contributing to the life of the school

I do hope that you will come and visit the school; I would be delighted to meet you and your family, show you the school and answer any questions you may have.

Hurst - a viewpoint:

"Since my son joined Hurst two years ago his personal development has amazed me. The wide range of cultural and sporting activities combined with a stimulating academic environment has contributed to changing him from a quiet introverted child into a well behaved confident and extroverted young man with a thirst to learn and experience new things."
