A Word from the Head


Click here to view a larger photo
Hurst Lodge accepts boys and girls from 3 to 18. We have a strong tradition of the creative and performing arts and believe that education is about developing the foundations for making a life as well as for making a living. We delight in celebrating a large range of different achievements, whether through the attainment of excellent academic and vocational qualifications, or through the development of leadership and life skills.

Hurst Lodge is intentionally a small school offering all pupils the chance to try out a wide range of activities to establish what suits them best and to develop a friendship base across age ranges. Our staff enable pupils to work at their own pace and ability level. We seek to inspire curiosity and imagination and encourage our children to experience a rich cultural life, encompassing the arts, science and citizenship, developing leadership and teamwork skills. We believe in the importance of underpinning this by making the connection between ourselves and the natural world and have embarked on a journey of exploration by undertaking the development of a small holding and a programme of integrating the school’s operations into the learning experience. We are collaborating in this with the award-winning Eden Project in Cornwall.
