Broomfield House School

A very warm welcome to Broomfield House School.
Built in 1876, Broomfield is a wonderful school in every sense. We are constantly building on our rich history, through a forward-thinking approach to our curriculum. Our entrepreneurial mindset and authentic, holistic approach to teaching puts children at the very heart of all that we do. Broomfield is the oldest private school in Kew with a focus on preparing children for the ever changing social, cultural, political, economic and futuristic landscape.

We are a small school, but punch well above our weight in all areas of school life. Despite being non- selective, academically, year after year we achieve excellent results, not only at 11+ but across the entire school. We celebrate neurodiversity with the belief that every child, no matter their starting point, can achieve excellent academic results.

We pride ourselves on providing individualised learning enhancement for every child, ensuring the right amount of challenge and support, whenever it is needed, throughout their journey with us. Our 2022 ISI inspection highlighted the excellent educational experience that we provide and
awarded us excellent in all areas, both in respect of pupils’ academic and other achievements and their personal development.
We are a family school in every sense. Generations of local families have trusted the school to provide an academically excellent and pastorally nurturing early years and prep school education for their boys and girls from the age of 3 up to 11. The school has numerous pupils whose parents, and even grandparents attended Broomfield themselves. The school is a friendly and inclusive academic family and we welcome pupils and their parents from all over the world, maintaining close and long- lasting relationships with many of them when they move on to other countries and schools.

Our values: Curiosity, Creativity, Courage and Kindness, were born out of consultation with the children. The children articulated ways in which they can demonstrate the values each day through their actions, and these are written in our Code of Conduct. On a daily basis it is a joy to see the children encourage each other to be curious in their learning, being creative when problem-solving, courageous when tackling new things and, above all, being kind, and to recognise the kindness of others.

I would be delighted to welcome you to Broomfield, to give you a personalised tour and to learn more about you and your family.

About
Broomfield House School

Broomfield House School is Kew’s oldest private school. The first printed reference to the school was in the Richmond & Twickenham Times on 29th January 1876 and records allow us to trace lineage back to the Head Teacher, Miss Sara Eliza Mead (1830 – 1918) who was leading the school at that time. Miss Mead gave the school its motto, Lo Here is Fellowship.

 

Since then, the school has become a feature of the community. The school’s original building, Broomfield House, is one of the largest Victorian houses in the village. Broomfield House now provides welcoming accommodation for our Years 4, 5 and 6 classes, a practical science room; the Green Room, new study rooms for one-to-one and small group teaching, as well as a dedicated computer room, staff room and school office.

 

The school welcomes children from 3 – 11. It is also partnered with two wonderful local nursery schools. In 2007, Broomfield took ownership of Kew’s oldest Montessori School, Kew Montessori, based at St Luke’s House, five minutes’ walk away on Sandycombe Road in Kew – a nursery that Ofsted judged ‘Outstanding’ in September 2016. In 2014, St Margaret’s Montessori in Twickenham also joined, so that children from age two have a clear pathway into a leading school.

Broomfield is a co-educational school in the heart of Kew.

The staff are professionals and know very well what are the needs of each child at school. Broomfield is like a family and everybody knows each other, this creates a very good environment for the children to gain confidence, to develop themselves and to learn.
