Head's Welcome

Welcome to Prospect House

Every child’s potential develops more readily when they feel safe, valued and happy. I am delighted our pupils thrive in the warm atmosphere of Prospect House where humour and laughter go hand in hand with serious study.

Years of teaching have taught me that every child is great at something. At Prospect House we celebrate these strengths, encouraging children to excel. Every small success leads to greater confidence and self-belief.

We have high academic expectations for all of our pupils and place great value on effort, ensuring that they have the necessary tools to succeed.

A notable percentage of our pupils gain scholarships. All go on to prestigious senior schools armed with the enthusiasm and self-confidence which is the hallmark of a Prospect House pupil.

I can honestly say our children love coming to school and I warmly invite you to come and meet me, my team and our pupils.

Please telephone 020 8246 4897 or email registrar@prospecths.org.uk.

Tatler Schools Guide 2020

Prospect House featured in Tatler magazine’s Schools Guide 2019.

‘Pupils are astonishingly self-aware at PH, with one seating, ‘I think everyone feels very fortunate to go to this school.’ Parents are delighted with Head Michael Hodge, and Mr Lennox in the nursery is ‘outstanding’, accord­ing to one parent whose daughter, despite having moved up the school, still pops to his classroom most days to say hello. Fitbits are the craze du jour and a Forest School is in the pipeline. Sports Day is a yearly highlight, as is gingerbread decorating at Christmas time. Leavers move on to Putney High and Latymer Upper, as well as a handful of Surrey schools’. (Tatler 2020)

Parent quotes

Feedback from parents

“Prospect House is a school that fosters happiness and respects individuality. After almost five years as a parent here, I have witnessed how the PHS ethos translates beautifully into confident children who enjoy learning and achieve their very best. This school is a gem and I cherish it as much as my two sons.”
Mrs Vitols

“A huge thank you from us, too, for everything you have done for our two girls. From the fantastic teaching (honestly, second to none), outstanding music and the wonderfully nurturing atmosphere, to the brilliant productions and all the trips they’ve enjoyed, the girls have benefitted so much from their time at PHS. We feel so blessed that they’ve had such an amazing
experience of primary school, and I’m not sure who feels more bereft at the prospect of leaving, [our daughter] or us.” 
Mr and Mrs Beggerow

Namaste!
