Welcome to New Headmaster at Swanbourne House, Buckinghamshire
Swanbourne House is a school with a very happy and purposeful atmosphere, in which girls and
boys receive a strong academic grounding in the context of excellent care. The breadth of the
curriculum and the programme of activities is enriching for all children.
In September 2013 Simon Hitchings will be taking over as Headmaster from Stephen and Julie Goodhart who have led the school with great success for 17 years. Simon is currently headmaster of St Aubyns near Brighton where he and his wife, Caroline, have been since 2007. Simon has a double first in Classics from Oxford and prior to his current role was Deputy Head Academic at King’s College School, Cambridge. Caroline is a Pre-Prep teacher with a degree in Music. They and their two young children are looking forward to joining Swanbourne House for the new academic year.
Simon writes: “It will be our aim to ensure that each child continues to fulfil his or her potential in the tradition of a caring, family environment. At the heart of my vision for education at Swanbourne is excellent preparation for entry to senior school; but I look beyond that to equipping children with personal skills of courtesy, tolerance and confi dence in the present and for the future.”
Come and visit, you can be assured of a warm welcome.
