Mrs Emma Robson – Head of Juniors
Discovering Crosfields School
With over twenty years of experience in leadership roles across prep schools in Hampshire, Surrey, and Lancashire, I was delighted to join the Crosfields family in September of 2024. From my very first visit, I was captivated by the warmth of the pupils, the dedication of the staff, and the school’s strong sense of community. Crosfields is a place where you immediately feel a sense of belonging—an inspiring environment in which to work and learn.
Educational Philosophy at Juniors
At Crosfields, we believe in providing a distinctive educational and developmental experience that empowers our pupils to discover their unique talents and the ways they learn best. Our approach fosters determination and independence while instilling an unquenchable thirst for knowledge. Our pupils thrive, growing into happy, articulate, confident, and truly impressive young individuals.
Unique Opportunities and Experiences
Our commitment to holistic education ensures our children have access to opportunities they might not otherwise experience. We offer a diverse range of activities, trips, visits, competitions, co-curricular clubs, societies, and annual residentials—most of which are included in our fees. Complementing our curriculum, our bespoke enrichment programme extends learning beyond traditional expectations, ensuring a truly well-rounded and inspiring educational journey.
Nurturing Individual Talents and Interests
Our dedicated teachers truly know each pupil, nurturing them with a tailored approach that accelerates the mastery of key skills and concepts across the curriculum. Through personalised challenges and targeted support, we foster a culture of ambition, encouraging every child to reach their fullest potential.
Future Plans and Aspirations
In 2025, the World Economic Forum produced a ‘Future of Jobs Report’ across 45 economies from all world regions. They outlined that between 2025 and 2030, the skills required globally to fulfil workforce demands include analytical thinking, AI and data awareness, creativity, resilience, curiosity, life-long learning, and technological literacy.
I am passionate about empowering our Junior pupils with a pioneering education that equips them with essential 21st-century skills, including digital literacy, to thrive in an ever-evolving world. Leadership, confidence, adaptability, and communication are seamlessly integrated into daily experiences both inside and outside the classroom—through a rich and diverse curriculum and co-curricular programme.
