The building development will help us to continue to provide an excellent education.

Our School Values such as resilience, perseverance, courage and kindness are not meaningless words on the wall, as you walk through our red door, but the vibrant heartbeat of Hilden Oaks.

Follow the educational journey of two children through Hilden Oaks.

Preparing our younger pupils for ‘big’ school.

The past year has certainly presented its fair share of challenges that have required us all to think outside box and come up with new ways of doing things.

A Hybrid/Blended learning model is usually aimed at secondary schools and further education but because of the on-going COVID-19 pandemic Hilden Oaks is successfully applying it to primary-aged children.

The ethos at Hilden Oaks is to INSPIRE, MOTIVATE, GUIDE, RECOGNISE and SUPPORT, and the focus is on personal development through physical activity.

Hilden Oaks is a highly achieving, successful prep school in Tonbridge, and has been awarded a prestigious ‘Gold SMSC Quality Mark’ by the Citizen Foundation, one of only a handful, nationwide. Spiritual, Moral, Social & Cultural (SMSC) development is at the heart of this excellent school and is evident across the whole curriculum.
