A warm welcome from our Principal
Our school is a popular, non-selective secondary academy for boys aged 11 – 16, serving the local community of Sidcup. Hurstmere School is a special place, with a strong sense of community and a determination to succeed in all that we do.
Our vision is for our pupils to 'Believe and Achieve'; to be the best that they can be. By promoting high aspiration and fostering a confident, self-belief that with hard work and determination, there are no boundaries to what they can achieve.
At Hurstmere, we have high aspirations for all our pupils, and our broad and balanced curriculum is tailored to foster a love of learning. We deliver a curriculum which is coherently planned and sequenced towards cumulatively sufficient knowledge for skills to give our pupils the foundations to fulfil their ambitions.
At Hurstmere, we believe that learning goes well beyond the classroom. We encourage every pupil to take part in extra-curricular enrichment activities and we are proud to offer an extensive range of clubs, trips and activities that are accessible to all. Our in-school and local offer spans from Bee Keeping to Lego club to our Nationally successful football teams.
Our vision is for our students to have high aspirations and a confident self-belief, that with hard work and determination, there are no boundaries to what they can achieve; that our students believe in themselves and achieve their full potential.

Apprentice Information Event
Yesterday, some of our Year 8 and 9 students took on the waters at Danson Water Sports Centre for an exciting day of personal development and teamwork! From paddleboarding to kayaking, they pushed themselves out of their comfort zones, built resilience, and strengthened friendships all while having an unforgettable time! A fantastic experience full of energy, laughter, and valuable life skills! #PersonalDevelopment #Teamwork #DansonWatersports #Year8 #Year9 #BeyondTheClassroom
Well done to all of Year 8 who engaged so well in the London Lifesavers School Programme today!
Today, Thursday 19th June, we were proud to welcome the London Lifesavers Schools Programme into school. Our students took part in hands-on, practical sessions focused on basic first aid and lifesaving techniques – particularly what to do if someone is in cardiac arrest. The programme is all about giving young people the knowledge and confidence to act in a life-threatening situation – and our boys rose to the challenge brilliantly. They left the sessions more prepared, more assured, and potentially ready to save a life one day. #HurstmereProud #LondonLifesavers #FirstAidMatters #LifeSkills #ConfidenceToAct
