The enthusiasm of our Prep School team is contagious and pupils cannot help but be swept along on a daily wave of discovery. The Prep teachers are led by the hugely experienced Mrs Chand, Deputy Head (Head of Prep), who joined Hydesville as over 12 years ago, and has extremely high standards and a level of professionalism that is second to none. The calibre of teachers, their commitment and aspirations for the pupils means children have the very best environment for making excellent progress, on all fronts.
We encourage all our staff to pursue professional development and have embedded this through a process of performance management that supports our culture of aspiration and continuous improvement. Our teachers continue to add to their skill set and develop professional knowledge and understanding; we also have an excellent partnership with the University of Worcester to work with trainee teachers. This in itself ensures our teachers are up to date with current practice.
