The Curriculum
An academically challenging curriculum with a focus on languages including our Label FrancÉducation accredited French immersion programme in the Prep School. Spanish, Latin and Mandarin begin from Year 5. Small class sizes and expert subject specialists throughout the school.
Games & The Arts
The Arts are strong with chamber choir, regular concerts and performances, and individual music tuition. Pupils up to Year 4 have RAD ballet lessons in the curriculum. Sport is taught throughout the school and Senior pupils row at the nearby Molesey Boat Club. Over 50 clubs offered throughout the year.
Pastoral Care
Our award-winning approach to pastoral care and our behaviour policy reflect our ethos as we always ‘seek first to understand’ and invest time in having conversations with students and families. This approach has proved very successful and in 2022 we were awarded with the Wellbeing Award for Schools. Our tutor and House system ensures each individual is known and supported to flourish personally and academically.
University Places
In 2023, A-level students enjoyed a 100% Oxbridge success rate and all students secured places on their first-choice courses.
Head Teacher’s Philosophy
Child-centred learning and relationship is at the heart of our philosophy. We believe that children learn best when they are actively engaged and invested in their education. By nurturing their natural sense of wonder, we lay the groundwork for a lifelong love of learning.
Outstanding Characteristics

From the Forest School in Early Years and the award-winning LabelFrancÉducation accredited French bilingual programme, to the Nebula Future Researcher’s Programme © in the Sixth Form, Hampton Court House pupils get a headstart every step of the way.
