Marlborough House School

About us

Set in beautiful extensive grounds in the village of Hawkhurst in Kent, Marlborough House is a country Prep School for 2 ½ to 13 year old boys and girls with a distinctly family feel; small enough for everyone to be known and cared for whilst still being bold and ambitious for the future. We believe strongly in allowing the children to develop values and character alongside an exciting academic, creative and sporting Curriculum.

Marlborough House School was rated as 'Excellent' in all areas in our 2023 ISI Inspection Report; the highest rating a school can achieve. The Educational Quality Inspection is a rigorous three-day review, assessing both pupils’ achievements and pupils’ personal development.

• Our Pupils’ Achievements were rated as ‘Excellent’
• Our Pupils’ Personal Development was rated as ‘Excellent’

Our pupils move onto senior schools at either 11 or 13 – there is a proud track record of success to Cranbrook at 11 as well as a range of independent senior schools at 13.

Our staff are our greatest resource and we are committed to employing inspirational teachers who have passion, drive and vision with the overall aim of giving each child at Marlborough house confidence, determination and a willingness to try new things.
