A leading independent prep school and nursery, providing a nurturing and stimulating environment for girls and boys aged 3 to 11 years. Founded in 1898 and located on the edge of Hertford. The school sits within the beautiful grounds of Hertingfordbury Park, surrounded by fields and woodlands.

Utilising the school site for Forest School and Outdoor Learning, pupils benefit from this unique learning environment surrounded by nature, allowing teachers to bring learning to life through the adventure of education.

St Joseph's is a supportive, family community which fosters a strong sense of belonging. Being a child here at St Joseph's is a unique experience; everyone is treated as an individual in a child-centred approach to education. We pride ourselves on being an all-round school where the whole child is educated. We aim to bring education to life. We believe that learning should be fostered in an atmosphere of trust and mutual respect, and within an environment where fear of failure is banished and reinforced by these positive experiences.

Our children achieve great success when applying for their secondary schools and many are awarded scholarships in all areas of the curriculum. Art, drama, music and sports are nurtured so that every child has the opportunity to shine and develop new talents. The children leave school full of self-confidence, having developed the courage to discover themselves and most importantly, to be the best they can.

The excellent pastoral care from our dedicated team of staff means your child will feel happy, secure, well cared for and part of the St Joseph's family.
