Heritage School is committed to relative affordability because we want to make a rich education available to as many children as possible. We understand that the cost of a Heritage education is a significant investment for families, and we deeply regret that the government has made it harder to access.

Nevertheless, we strongly believe that a Heritage education is worth it. We have seen its far-reaching impact. Parents cannot get what we offer elsewhere. In our Infant and Junior Schools we are laying the foundations necessary for robust personal and academic development through our small class sizes and our unique curriculum. Building on these foundations, our Seniors are achieving outstanding academic outcomes, but, more importantly, they are emerging from Heritage settled in who they are and well prepared not just for further education, but for life.

What makes Heritage so effective is that we focus all of our energies upon what matters most – the growth of mind.  The things necessary for the flourishing of a person intellectually, emotionally, socially and spiritually are relatively simple and do not cost the earth. Skilful and committed teachers,  excellent classroom resources, especially good books, ample ‘mind food’ served up day in and day out without the distractions of technology, countless trips that take advantage of our wonderful city-centre location – it is ingredients such as these that make Heritage special.

We hope you will come meet us to learn more. It would be our pleasure to welcome you for a tour or on an Open Morning.

Fees are paid monthly, usually by Direct Debit collection, from August to July of each academic year.
