History
Founded in 1926 by Mr Dudley A Bull, the school began as a boys' preparatory school with both day pupils and boarders. 'The Hawthorns' house, built in the 1880s, was situated at Gatton Point, on the London Brighton road, north of Redhill. In 1961 the school moved to Pendell Court, Bletchingley. Built in 1624[1] as a family home, it was later occupied by an order of nuns, the Wantage Sisters, until 1960.
The school became a co-educational prep school in September 1992. Boarding ended and The Hawthorns became an IAPS day school in 1994.
