Job overview
Situated in over forty acres, Crosfields does not stand still. This one time all boys Prep School heralded the arrival of its first girls in 2007, and a year 9 cohort in September as the school's plans to extend to 16 became a reality. Children currently in Year 8 will be the first to go through to GCSE at 16. Supported by considerable investment in the infrastructure, the ambition is to keep the wonderful tone and atmosphere of our Junior School marrying it with the ambition, challenge and opportunities appropriate for our older pupils.

Vision and values
First and foremost, the school aims to create an environment where every child is safe, happy and supported. It strives to offer a curriculum that is varied enough to allow every unique individual to discover their talents. Teachers encourage children to put in the effort and be resilient. They hope to give pupils the ability to be independent thinkers who challenge and enquire.
Numeracy and ICT skills are especially good at this school, along with reading. Creative subjects such as design and technology and art are another focus. The curriculum as a whole gives pupils experience in linguistic, mathematical, scientific, technological and social areas, as well as physical education. Extra-curricular activities range from golf and fencing to Forest School and chess. School trips are also organised to broaden pupils’ horizons.
ISI report

The curriculum, together with an excellent range of extra-curricular activities, trips and visits, supports pupils’ learning extremely well.”
