From our small class sizes to our personalised learning provision, we do everything we can to ensure that each child flourishes and enjoys a successful time with us. Through their time at the school, we endeavour to add year on year value to their education, ensuring that pupils who leave us are confident, articulate independent learners with a thirst for knowledge and a curiosity about the world around them, as well as tolerant, empathetic, well-rounded individuals.

"Norfolk House School provided me with many skills which are proving essential for my education now and in the future. In particular, I think that Norfolk House has given me an edge in terms of English language and literature – we studied many texts which I am only returning to now in Years 8 and 9."
