The Muddy reviewer said it was “Hard to find fault with this thoroughly wholesome co-ed Prep school in a dreamy rural setting, with a family vibe and great results.”

She added: “Terrington Hall has a reputation locally for being friendly and family-oriented. Obviously, the parents love the academic results, but also appreciate the lack of pressure put on the children (an Oct 24 parent survey had 96% of parents saying their children were happy at school). Forest School and the muddy knees ethos is a big hit.”

Other points highlighted include:

• The vibe is grounded, but academically strong.
• Reputation locally for being friendly and family oriented.
• Lunchtime wellbeing clubs for both boys and girls.
• A smart mix of sport for all but stretch for those who want to achieve.
• Academic rigour which is well balanced with a holistic view of learning.
• The antithesis of a stiff-upper-lip headmaster.
• Good flexible after-school care.
• Performing arts “one of the school’s stand-out options.

The reviewer also said: “Terrington is non-selective, but you wouldn’t know it with the extraordinary results.” She recommended our school to “anyone looking for a school where kids are allowed to be kids”

Terrington Hall Headmaster Huw Thomas said: “I’m incredibly proud to be the Headmaster of such an amazing school. Our staff and parents know what a uniquely special community this is but it’s always a pleasure when visitors discover that, too.”
