A Catholic independent boarding and day school in Essex located 30 minutes from London, catering for students aged 1-19, and offering ?The Best Start in Life.’ With a proud heritage and a strong tradition of academic excellence, New Hall School provides an inspirational learning environment enriched by exceptional pastoral care. New Hall School supports military families with specific awards and grants, demonstrating its commitments to the wider community. The award-winning New Hall Voluntary Service scheme, in which all students participate at some point in their school lives, was recognised as a significant strength in New Hall’s most recent ISI inspection.
New Hall features distinctive academic initiatives, such as immersive language learning in its Cookery Department, where students cook while learning French and Spanish. This innovative approach addresses the national decline in language studies. Students have excelled in rugby, athletics, horse riding, cricket, netball, skiing, tennis, basketball and football. New Hall continues to build on its extensive co-curricular provision, having introduced Football and Basketball in the last two years, complete with dedicated, state-of-the-art courts and pitches. New Hall is expanding its Equestrian provision and onsite Learn-to-Ride Centre with a bespoke manège and advanced simulators. Boarders love the welcoming, family-like atmosphere and opportunities for personal growth and academic achievement. New Hall’s ethos of care, trust and respect ensures a supportive community where every student is valued and encouraged to thrive.
“Pastoral care is a quintessential component of life at New Hall and one which pervades each student and parent experience.”
