A welcome from our head teacher...

I am delighted to welcome you to the Highfield website and give you a glimpse of all that makes our Prep school so special.

Our aim is to guide each individual child through these most important formative years of learning, so that they become responsible, well-balanced and caring young people, able to face their future schooling with confidence and enthusiasm.

Through Reception and Key Stages 1 and 2, the happiness of our children is vital, because this lays a secure foundation for their success at school. Whilst encouraging each child to attain the highest academic standards of which he or she is capable, we also encourage good manners and respect for others. I also believe that partnerships that are formed between pupils, staff and parents are the key to a child’s success.

As a website gives only a small idea of what a school has to offer, the full picture remains hidden until you see it for yourself. So I hope what follows will whet your appetite and encourage you to visit Highfield where I look forward to meeting you and showing you around our vibrant and caring school.
