Hoe Bridge School

In their own words

Hoe Bridge School is an independent school for girls and boys 2 to 16 years old. Within a stunning, safe setting combining historic buildings and new leading-edge facilities, our school is nestled in 22 acres of beautiful countryside just outside Woking, Surrey. Extensive playing fields, forest school area, natural pond and the Hoe Stream are used daily to engage the children in sporting exploits and the wonders of nature.

Every day at Hoe Bridge is unique, exciting and challenging.

We have a special community with a passionate belief in fostering the core school ethos of Happiness, Confidence and Achievement. Parents forge a strong relationship with a school that is dedicated to the individual development of each child, giving them a deep-rooted love for learning, in an enthusiastic and engaging environment. Visitors comment on the vibrant energy and happy faces that they see throughout our school.

We are passionate in the belief that the role of educators is to provide a wide-ranging framework in which children can grow and develop creatively in a continually changing and often unpredictable world. We have an unwavering commitment to empowering those within our community: inspiring, challenging and motivating both children and adults in all that we do. We have an environment, from Nursery through to Year 8 and in the future Year 9 to 11, which grows and adapts, allowing all children to learn and understand from their many different strengths. Empathy and caring for others are our principal values, which are intrinsic within our ideology and shown in the special qualities within our community. Each child is known and valued for who they are.

In providing a safe and secure environment where children can explore their potential, confidence and self-esteem we nurture each individual enabling them to achieve the highest of standards. Learning is best achieved in a collaborative community which inspires and encourages ambitious minds with high quality and dynamic teachers being the driving force behind such a setting. We prepare ‘Thinking Children’, able to perform exceptionally well through the rigours of 11+ assessments and flourishing in Common Entrance and Senior School Scholarships.

The admissions process uses the online ISEB Common Pre Test (sometimes referred to as the Common Entrance Exam). This exam has a specific format and structure, includes a range of predictable questions types and is taken in an online/computer environment.
