"Good but Room for Improvement"

We've been pleased with our daughter's experience at Hurstpierpoint College, the teachers are mostly good and the facilities are well-maintained. However, we feel that the school could do more to support pupils with special needs and the pastoral care could be improved. We're hoping to see some changes in these areas in the future.
