Welcome to Hartismere!
It is a special privilege to serve as Executive Headmaster at Hartismere. Each and every day I see a level of commitment from staff that I have never encountered in another school during the course of my career.
Our parents are amongst the most supportive I 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.
I look forward to working with you as a new student or parent of the school.
Welcome to Hartismere.
