As Hill House School continues to grow and evolve, we are keen to enhance the experience we provide for our pupils. A key area of focus is continuing to ensure that every child at Hill House receives a balanced, nutritious and varied selection of meals each day, alongside excellent choice, dietary needs and quality across all of our food provision.

Hill House’s Chief Operating Officer, Mr James Slater-Crockett, said, “Accent is a leading UK school catering provider with extensive experience in the independent school sector, already serving a number of well-respected schools across the country.

I am confident that this new partnership will enable us to continue delivering an outstanding dining experience for our pupils. Accent shares Hill House’s commitment to quality, nutrition, sustainability and service, and we look forward to working closely with them to further enhance our catering provision.”

As part of the exciting new development, the school is also investing in the dining facilities to ensure that the environment matches the high-quality food offering available. New serving areas in the main Dining Hall will be enjoyed by pupils throughout the school, whilst a new menu and full-time catering offer will be available exclusively to our Sixth Formers in the new ‘Thrive at The Loft’ space, giving our maturest pupils the facilities that they need to get the best out of their learning experience.

A great success in the transition is that all members of our existing catering team have successfully transferred to Accent Catering, meaning that the familiar faces who know our pupils so well will remain in place, continuing to provide excellent service and care. The team will also continue to be led by our Catering Manager, Mr Darren Danby, whose guidance and leadership have been instrumental in the success of our catering provision throughout the past school year.

These developments will bring significant benefits to our pupils and the wider Hill House community, and we look forward to developing this strong partnership with Accent over the coming years.
