Heath Mount is a leading IAPS day and boarding Preparatory School with over 490 pupils aged 3 to 13. Established in 1817 our School is a vibrant and forward thinking co-educational environment, valuing traditions of the past whilst embracing the very best of modern education. Heath Mount is located within the beautiful Woodhall Estate in Hertfordshire. Our scholarship results to senior schools are amongst the best in the country. This year our pupils have already gained 44 academic, music, art, DT, sports and drama scholarships to schools across the country.
We benefit from our own forest school set in acres of woodland, and an all-weather astro turf. The spacious central plateau houses rugby, football and cricket pitches, as well as our netball courts.
We have a well-equipped gymnasium, and our swimming pool offers the best of both worlds, with a retractable roof giving shelter in the winter and outdoor swimming in the warmer summer months, so our children really do have the opportunity to enjoy sport all year round.
Inside, all classrooms are equipped with the very latest in interactive technology. We have a dedicated ICT suite in the Pre-Prep and a newly refurbished ICT facility in the Prep School. The newly renovated suite, kindly donated by the du Maurier Society is equipped with the latest touch screen computer technology, allowing us to deliver the new National Curriculum syllabus with increased emphasis on computer programming.
Our purpose-built Pre-Prep is in the same grounds as the Prep School but separate from it. It has its own library, computer room, music room and hall in addition to a beautiful outdoor playground. Pre-Prep children also use many of the Prep School’s facilities such as the Sports Hall, Astroturf, Swimming Pool, Pottery Room and Chapel.
In September 2016, our new state-of-the-art classroom block for Year 3 and 4 pupils opened. In June 2017 we opened our purpose-built performing arts centre.
