world class school

Where every part of your child’s brilliance is noticed and nurtured.

Book a Tour

A place where your child discovers just how much they can do.

Every corner of The Mount is alive with experiences that will open your child’s eyes to what they can do. They create on our red London bus with real tools and real purpose. They perform on stage in the Imaginarium and feel the thrill of an audience.

They compete on our fields and table tennis courts and discover strengths they never knew they had. They explore outdoors, try music, practise new skills and take on challenges that make learning exciting and full of possibility. This is a place where childhood becomes unforgettable.

Victorian School Building

A beautiful Victorian manor filled with character and history. From the grand staircase that welcomes children each morning to the generous classrooms and inspiring spaces throughout, the building itself sets the tone for a school experience that feels special every single day.

The London Bus

A bright red London bus transformed into a space for creativity and making. Children explore art, music and design technology here, and it even opens its doors for parents to join workshops and practical sessions of their own.

The Imaginarium

A stage where children step forward and find their voice. From performances and storytelling to school productions and Parliament meetings, this space gives children the confidence to express ideas, share talents and be heard.

The Hubb

A parent favourite at the school gates. Fresh barista coffee greets parents at drop off and collection, creating a relaxed moment to chat with other families, catch up with teachers and start the day well.

The Nautilus

Our brand new sensory room inspired by Jules Verne’s Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea. Inside the Nautilus, children discover a calm, immersive space filled with water themed details, a tropical fish tank, Captain Nemo’s chair and quiet places designed to soothe and spark curiosity.

The Allotment – Coming Soon

A hands-on space where children learn how food grows. Pupils will plant, care for and harvest their own produce here, before enjoying it fresh in their school lunches.

You can sense the difference the moment you walk in.

The best way to understand The Mount is to visit. See children who are fully engaged in what they are doing and feel the welcome that greets every family.

See what a day at The Mount feels like.

A school day here shows your child what they are capable of. Lessons challenge children to think deeply, master the foundations of maths, reading and writing, and achieve the high standards you expect.

Beyond the classroom, the day opens up into experiences that spark curiosity and excitement. Children build and create, perform in the Imaginarium, compete in sport, explore outdoors and work together on ideas that suddenly make sense.

By the end of the day they have not just learned something new. They have discovered something new about themselves.

What You Get for Your Fees

So much more than a school day.

Your child will enjoy far more than just lessons. They'll go on trips, attend swimming and tennis lessons, meet visiting performers and enjoy seasonal celebrations that bring joy to the year. As parents/carers, you benefit too with barista coffee from The Hubb, and coming soon: a parent/carer business networking group, and other business opportunities.
