Hurstpierpoint College
Hurstpierpoint College is a thriving co-educational day and boarding school for pupils from 4 to 18 years of age. The College offers places to day pupils and boarders. Our flexi and weekly boarding options are popular with pupils from the local area as well as further afield. The College is ideally situated in the Sussex countryside between Haywards Heath and Brighton, and is within easy reach of London by train.
Hurst is truly co-educational throughout and offers boarding for boys and girls in the Senior School. Boarding is a particularly popular option at the school with many day pupils and flexi-boarders later opting to become weekly boarders. In their Upper Sixth year at Hurst, pupils join St John's House, a co-educational day and boarding house where, appropriately supervised, they enjoy greater freedoms and are encouraged to further develop their independent learning skills in preparation for university. Hurst offers the academic excellence essential to give students future success in life. Just as importantly, our pupils make the most of their talents, potential and personality, as they experience fresh opportunities and challenges. At Hurst, pupils gain the values, integrity and intellectual independence to guide them through the years ahead. We offer all this, and a great deal more, in one of the friendliest and most supportive school communities likely to be found anywhere.
