Heathfield is a small boarding and day school for girls aged 11-18 years. It provides an environment where a girl’s childhood will be happy and secure where she has the opportunity to discover her unique passions and talents and accordingly, to develop self-belief and confidence to enable her to succeed. Life in the 21st Century demands spirit, resilience, and adaptability it is incumbent upon us to help equip her with both academic qualifications and life skills. We are ambitious for our girls and our bespoke approach enables them to succeed in many different areas.

The boarding ethos is central to the Heathfield community. Boarding comes with a built-in social life and enables the development of close and life-long friendships. Living and working together teaches empathy, respect, independence, and self-confidence. And, in the 24/7 boarding environment, learning in the broadest sense never stops. When the school day finishes, there is time for the many co-curricular opportunities and staff are always on hand to help with Prep.

From the moment a girl arrives at Heathfield, she is nurtured and helped to discover and develop her talents and abilities. Each girl’s contribution to the community is recognized and valued while discipline is enforced firmly but fairly.

Heathfield is a happy school where children can be children while they are also prepared for the future as they grow and mature.

Friendships flourish within Heathfield’s unique community and the girls make friends for life while retaining a special place in their heart for the school.
