Welcome to Hartismere!

It is a special privilege to serve as co-headteachers at Hartismere. Each and every day we see a level of commitment from staff that we have never encountered in another school during the course of our careers.  

Our parents are amongst the most supportive we have had the privilege to know and our scholars are both a pleasure to teach and a credit to their families. They deserve the high standards they achieve in examinations and they make the atmosphere caring and warm. 

We look forward to working with you as new pupils, parents, carers and families of the school. 

Welcome to Hartismere.
