About our School
Set in beautiful extensive grounds in the village of Hawkhurst in Kent, Marlborough House is a country Prep School for 2 1/2 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.
Marlborough House consists of a Nursery, Pre-Prep and Prep school and we offer midweek boarding where children can stay on one or more regular nights a week.
The School is committed to providing freshly cooked, healthy food, locally sourced where possible, for children and staff.
We value our staff very highly and believe it is critical to invest in them.
We nurture a culture of personal and professional development and offer our staff opportunities for training and progression.
