Highfields Private School is unique.
Not just driven by academic achievement, Highfields prides itself on being a “small and friendly school”.
The Private School was officially opened in April 2000, as a unique teaching environment where pupils could progress in a way which suited their own personal needs. With manageable classes of no more than twelve, our enthusiastic staff are committed to the well-being and progression of each individual student, helping them to develop social and organisational skills as well as encouraging moral values and the essential confidence needed for adult life.
“From humble beginnings Highfields has become a true success story…year after year we have grown and changed in new, exciting and innovative ways. I would never have believed nine years ago that Highfields was to grow so quickly.
We are truly proud of our school and we are constantly looking for ways to improve the school life of the students here, I would strongly recommend that you visit the school to get a true feel for the ethos created by the content and gifted minds of our pupils and staff.”
Mary Haddy
Head Teacher
"The school provides a good quality of education and successfully meets its aims. The commitment of staff to the needs of all pupils underpins the good quality of care which, together with the good curriculum, ensures pupils make good progress. Its provision for spiritual, moral, social and cultural development is good. Teaching is good. The school meets all the educational and organisational regulations and has made satisfactory improvement since the last inspection.
The curriculum is good and meets the learning needs of pupils of all abilities effectively. It has adjusted well to meet pupils’ needs and is highly flexible in providing examination and vocational courses for those in Years 10 and 11."
