Hope House School

Nottinghamshire, Nottinghamshire, East Midlands · NG24 3NE

With just 28 pupils on roll, Hope House School is among the smallest independent schools a family might consider, and that scale defines its character. This co-educational, non-denominational school in Nottinghamshire offers a setting where each child is genuinely known rather than one of many. It is led by headteacher Mrs Michelle McRae and inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate. For parents drawn to a close-knit, intimate environment over the bustle of a large institution, the appeal is clear.
