Welcome! From bumps to teens we have it covered.
This is your one-stop site for everything you need to know about living in Welwyn with children.
At Harwood Hill, we believe Early Years provides the foundation of all that children will learn throughout their school careers. We provide a supportive, caring environment which allows children to feel safe and secure within the school. We develop and encourage independent learners who thrive and reach their full potential. Children who enter our EYFS begin their lifelong learning journey by developing physically, verbally, cognitively and emotionally while also embedding a positive attitude to school and a love of learning.

Looking for a school place can be so daunting! Having been there just last year, I know how confusing it can be to try to gather all the information you need to help make a confident decision on school options! If I can share one top tip it would be visit the school, and visit again if you feel you need to!
I hope this page offers you a Calender of Open mornings to make your quest to Admissions 2025 that little bit easier!
