Duncombe is an Independent, Co-educational, Pre-prep and Preparatory School for children from 2 to 11 years old, situated in leafy Bengeo on the outskirts of Hertford. At Duncombe you will find a caring, family atmosphere which has been a feature of the school since its earliest days. We believe the best education is a well-rounded one and therefore offer a wide ranging curriculum, from academic work to practical activities and a variety of events and opportunities both in and out of school.

We help children to develop enquiring minds, interpersonal skills and social understanding, while having lots of fun. This approach encourages personal development and self confidence and provides a firm foundation for the years ahead. We are proud of our reputation for high academic standards and our pupils' achievements in all areas of life.

We hope you enjoy our website and are keen to find out more. Once you have seen Duncombe in action you will understand why it is such a happy and successful school. Please contact the Registrar on (01992) 414109 to arrange a visit.

We look forward to welcoming you.
