Barrow Hills is a lively, aspirational school for girls and boys aged 2 to 13.
We welcome children into a warm community set in an extraordinary woodland setting. Across our 33 acres, we harness forest school, eco-projects and adventurous education to promote sustainability, resilience and a deep connection with the natural environment.

Curiosity and confidence drive high academic standards from Early Year Foundations Stage for our younger pupils to excellent Common Entrance results for our Upper Prep leavers.
