We are delighted to announce that Hampton Court House has once again been shortlisted for the prestigious London Independent School of the Year award—marking the second consecutive year that our school has received this honour.
A Testament to Community and Excellence
This remarkable recognition celebrates the strength and spirit of the HCH community—our curious and confident students, our dedicated and inspiring staff, and our engaged and supportive families. It is a testament to the shared commitment that makes Hampton Court House such a unique and joyful place to learn and grow.
According to the award judges, “a record number of entries were received this year from schools across the country, and the standard has never been higher.” To be shortlisted for a second year running is therefore an extraordinary achievement—and one that we are immensely proud of.
A Unique Setting That Inspires Learning
Set within 7 acres of beautiful parkland and just a short journey from central London, Hampton Court House offers a truly distinctive educational experience. Our location combines the tranquillity of nature with ready access to London’s world-class cultural and academic institutions—museums, galleries, theatres, and universities—all of which are woven into our rich programme of experiential learning.
Purposeful Informality, Powerful Outcomes
At the heart of our school is a deeply held ethos of purposeful informality. We believe in fostering mutual respect, intellectual curiosity, and a sense of personal responsibility. This ethos supports our students to achieve academic excellence while developing the confidence to be themselves.
Being shortlisted once more in the Independent Schools of the Year Awards is a powerful endorsement of our vision—and of everything that makes Hampton Court House a truly exceptional school in London’s educational landscape.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to every member of the HCH community who contributes to this vibrant, nurturing and forward-thinking school.
