Hurtwood House is a private, residential, co-educational sixth form college near Dorking, Surrey, England. ==Synopsis== Founded in 1970 by Richard Jackson, the main house is an Edwardian mansion set in in the Surrey Hills. The intern students, aged 16-19, organise their studies and leisure in 8 houses: The Hurtwood Main House, the Lodge, Radnor Cottage, Peaslake House, Ewhurst Place, the Turrets, Beatrice Webb House and Cornhill Manor. In summer of 2007, Hurtwood gave Leith Hill Place (which was also a boarding house for students) back to the National Trust. They purchased Cornhill Manor towards Ewhurst village proper, which is a mainly rural clustered village, ready for the start of the 2007-2008 academic school year. Each house has its own grounds. The school, which is non-denominational, offers a two-year pre-university course for students typically aged 16 to 19, mainly focused on GCE 'A' levels.〔 There are approximately 300 students, divided equally between boys and girls. There is also a high proportion of overseas students who attend the school, notably from Russia and China.〔 The school has a strong national academic record, regularly ranked in a broad category (including 11-16, 11-18 and 13-16, and 13-18 school) as the best Co-educational School and regularly among the top 50 independent schools in the country.〔 The school has the highest post-16 "Contextual Value Added" (CVA) score of any school in the UK. This takes into account the achievement of students on entry and measures the improvements they make during their courses of study. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hurtwood House」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
