Together we grow
Highfield and Brookham is an independent Nursery, Pre-Prep and Prep School in Liphook for boys and girls aged 2-13, nestled on the leafy borders of Hampshire, West Sussex and Surrey.
As a family-owned school, we celebrate our genuine independence and prepare children for the leading boarding and top day schools. Not being answerable to a senior school or trust results in a strong sense of togetherness and a welcoming family feel. We work together with our children and their families to ensure the children receive the very best education possible. Our curriculum is rich and varied, providing balanced opportunities across a wide spectrum of extra-curricular, outdoor and outreach programmes.
Our awards
Scholarship success
We have a flawless record of securing entrance to a child’s chosen senior school, whether at 11+ or 13+. Our curriculum gives opportunities for all children to flourish and our scholarship success is evidence of our outstanding academic ambition. Our children have been awarded over 100 scholarships over the past six years to a diverse range of top senior schools, including Wellington College, Cranleigh School, Radley College, Marlborough College and Charterhouse and include a huge variety of scholarships ranging from academic and art to sports and music.
Extensive grounds
Situated in 175 acres of glorious natural grounds in the South Downs National Park, on the borders of Surrey, West Sussex and Hampshire, our beautiful estate provides not only a stunning backdrop for our Nursery, Pre-Prep and Prep, but importantly is a wonderful place for learning. We are committed to making the most of our amazing grounds, as well as protecting and enhancing them.

Have our nursery children had a marvellous time at Mini Marvels this week? We certainly think so! With arts and crafts, forest walks, sports and swimming they have been such busy little bees learning and playing with their friends. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex
The children on our multi-activities half term course are having an absolute blast this week! From action-packed mornings of sports and games to creative afternoons of Halloween-inspired arts and crafts, there’s been non-stop fun for everyone. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #halftermactivities
The young chefs on our half term cookery course have been busy whipping up some autumnal treats and today’s special was apple cake. With precise weighing, careful chopping and plenty of mixing, they baked their cakes to perfection. The kitchen was filled with the delicious aroma of freshly baked goodness. But the real question is… will there be any left to take home?
The children on our Multi-Activities holiday club have had an amazing time today exploring nature on a scavenger hunt in our beautiful woodland. They worked in teams, searching high and low for hidden treasures, discovering all kinds of natural wonders on their exciting adventure in the autumn sunshine.
Autumn is such an amazing time of year, with heavy overnight dew and golden leaves aplenty creating a wonderful natural panorama right outside our classroom windows. It’s also an incredibly busy time for Jasper, our Head of Grounds, and his dedicated team who have much to do before winter sets in. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #Nature #Autumn
One of the big benefits of having 175-acre grounds at our fingertips is that there is so much space in which to learn, to play, to reflect and to discover. We’re holding our next Open Morning on Friday 22nd November, so why not join us? You’ll see that we are a busy, vibrant, engaging and happy school and, wherever you go, you can never be sure what delights you will find next! #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #OpenMorning
We’ve been treated to an afternoon of amazing dramatic and artistic performance in the shape of the annual House Poetry competition. Children from Year 3 all the way up to Year 8 took centre stage in front of their peers, belying their years to recite serious, humorous, thought-provoking and downright comical works, some of which were written by the children themselves. Congratulations to Alec Williams for being named overall winner and Agincourt for securing bragging rights among the houses. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex
Thanks to the life skills they are armed with, and the strength, depth and variety of our progressive curriculum, we are confident that our pupils are in the best position possible to make the right moves no matter what they are faced with… #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex
Highfield and Brookham’s pastoral provision is going from strength to strength – a year on from the opening of The Beehive, the school’s dedicated wellbeing hub. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex
Today, we marked Better Sleep Week with a series of calming initiatives aimed at highlighting why quality sleep is essential for children’s growth and development. While teachers donned their pyjamas, older and younger children got together to read and listen to bedtime stories in their classrooms and common rooms, chat with their night-time teddies about sleeping habits and relax to soothing sounds and stories in The Beehive, our welcoming wellbeing hub. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #BetterSleepWeek
Last week, our talented young Prep school musicians performed a wonderful cushion concert to parents and friends. Today, it was the turn of our Pre-Prep pupils to take a starring role. Choral numbers blended beautifully with confident performances on piano, cello and violin as the children belied their years to demonstrate the progress they have made under the direction of our specialist music teachers. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #Music
Four of our Prep school children have cashed in their winning Giving Day raffle prize – lunch with our Head, Mrs Cryer. The girls landed the prize after our big summer fundraiser netted an amazing £27,000 for the Centenary Bursaries Fund, which helps give children access to a private education which otherwise might be out of reach. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex
Put through their paces by specialist drama teacher Mrs Wilson, our Pre-Prep children had to think on their feet and get into character at the drop of a hat during Theatre Club. Walking casually around the room, the children had to stop and adopt a facial expression, display an emotion or interpret a specific role (such as a firefighter, swimmer or teacher) when prompted by Mrs Wilson. And we think they did a pretty good job. Bravo, children! #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #AfterSchoolClub #ExtraCurricularActivities

Having big rural grounds gives our children the chance to take advantage of nature’s bounty. In this case, our creative young pupils used fallen leaves to create artistic montages of woodland creatures such as foxes and hedgehogs as part of their extra-curricular Animal Club activities. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex
