Established in 1987 by Mrs Nadine Garrod, Howe Green House School was founded by a passionate group of parents and staff who believed in a dream and a commitment to excellence. Discover a legacy shaped by their dedication, where education is not just a journey but a collective endeavour. The committed parents and staff embraced the Howe Green House ethos, and today, the school proudly stands as a testament to their collaborative spirit, which has fuelled our ongoing success.
From our humble beginnings with sixty pupils, Howe Green House has blossomed into a wonderful independent prep school on the Hertfordshire/Essex border – thriving on a 13 acre canvas of beautiful grounds. Below is a summary of how we transformed the house and outbuildings into a charming school dedicated to nurturing the talents of our pupils.
