Herbert Hurd regards itself as one of the most pro-active schools, not only in Port Elizabeth but also in the Eastern Cape. We pride ourselves in whatever we do as we strive for the education of the whole child.

Herbert Hurd maintains high academic standards with pupils participating in various Olympiads and external examinations. A study of these results brings home the sterling work that is being done by a dedicated group of teachers. Adding to our success is the policy of small classes with specialists in certain fields assisting the teachers.
