Greenfield School and Hoe Bridge School Announce Merger

Posted: 12th May 2025

Greenfield School and Hoe Bridge School announce merger to create an all-through co-educational school

The Governing Bodies of Hoe Bridge School and Greenfield School are delighted to announce that we will be merging to form a new all-through co-educational school for pupils aged 6 months to 16 from September 2026.

Situated across the current Hoe Bridge and Greenfield sites, the new school will be called Hoe Bridge School and will expand its provision to teach children from pre-Nursery up to Year 11.

The school will comprise a year-round nursery and senior school for Years 9, 10 and 11 on the current Greenfield Site; and a term-time nursery and preparatory school for Reception to Year 8 on the current Hoe Bridge Site. All current pupils will automatically join the new school in September 2026.
“This is the start of an exciting new chapter in our history,” said Ian Katté, Chair of Governors at Hoe Bridge School. “Founding a new all-through to 16 school means not only will pupils be able to enjoy the best of our two exceptional schools, but a broader range of year-groups will now be able to take advantage of all these opportunities we have here.”

“Our two schools have been close neighbours for generations, with long-standing relationships between our respective communities, not to mention a number of families in common,” said Neil Blagden, Chair of Governors at Greenfield School. “Coming together and combining our expertise and experience feels like a natural next step for both schools.”

“Both Hoe Bridge and Greenfield care deeply about supporting and teaching pupils as individuals,” said Matt Robinson, Head of Greenfield School. “I am delighted that from next September, pupils will benefit from a deeper and broader range of curricular and extra-curricular opportunities underpinned by a strong ethos of holistic education.”

“We are terribly excited to realise our ambitions to offer families across Surrey an unparalleled, all-through educational experience for their children,” said Chris Webster, Headmaster of Hoe Bridge School. “By drawing on the unique strengths of both schools, our new school will provide a wider range of opportunities for pupils, educating the whole child in a supportive and encouraging environment.”
