The College comprises a Sixth Form,  Senior School, Senior Prep and Junior  Prep with 1,300 pupils in all. Over half the  pupils in the Senior School are boarders  (weekly or flexi). Hurst is a significant  medium-sized enterprise in Mid Sussex  with around 480 employees and an  annual turnover of £35 million pa.  

What particularly strikes visitors to the  College is the vibrant dynamic of our  community. Situated within a 140- acre campus, surrounded by beautiful  countryside, Hurst lies on the border of the  South Downs National Park, close to the  village of Hurstpierpoint in West Sussex.  

This superb location is also just 20  minutes from the city and beaches of  Brighton and Hove, whilst London train  stations can be reached from Hassocks  or Haywards Heath in under an hour.  The central campus is thoughtfully  laid out and planned with zones for the  Academic, Co-Curricular and Pastoral  areas of school life. These all lie at  the centre of a superbly equipped  broader campus. 

Hurst has an excellent academic track  record and the vast majority of pupils  go on to Russell Group universities  including Oxford, Cambridge, the  various London Universities, as well as  large numbers to Exeter, Bristol and  Durham. 

Founded in 1849 by Nathanial Woodard,  Hurst is a Church of England College.  The Christian ethos underpins College  life but we are a diverse community; we  welcome those of other faiths, or no  faith, and pursue an inclusive approach  in all that we do. 

The College is a Co-Sponsor, together  with the Diocese of Chichester, of the  newly formed Hurst Education Trust,  a local Multi Academy Trust. The Trust  currently has four local primary schools,  although it is envisaged it will grow to  over time.
