A question prospective parents might ask of any schoolThe question we are most often asked when approached by prospective parents considering sending their child to The Mount is “why should I choose this independent school for my child’s education?”
The answer, quite simply, is that everything we do at The Mount School is designed to provide the very best education, to bring the very best out of each child and so provide them with the widest choice of secondary schools, including the best Independent and State Grammar Schools, at 11 years old. We believe that the many offers of places won by our Form VI students every year proves our point. You can be confident that no other school in Huddersfield provides this single-minded pursuit of a broad and high quality education offering the widest choice at 11+.
The school is unfettered by a senior department for 11+ years of age, so you can also be confident that we always offer impartial advice on the widest and most appropriate choice of excellent secondary schools available to your child. This means that, by the time your child reaches 18, they will have been given the best choices possible throughout their education, built on the firmest of educational foundations.
This website and the headteacher's letter introduces prospective parents to who we are and what we do, whilst also maintaining online communication with existing parents. However, if you have any questions about the School, whether you are a prospective or existing parent, please just pick up the phone and call 01484 426432. We look forward to hearing from you. |
