Hampton School
In their own words
Located in a highly desirable area of South West London, Hampton School is situated on a beautiful 27-acre green field site.
A generous investment programme ensures that pupils and staff benefit from first-class facilities across all areas of School life. These include a state-of-the-art 3G sportsground, a large Sports Hall and the Hammond Theatre, along with an excellent library and specialist facilities for Art, Music, Science, Technology, IT and Languages. We have recently opened a superb Sixth Form Study and Careers Centre. The Millennium Boat House, shared with our neighbouring girls’ school, Lady Eleanor Holles (LEH), enjoys a prime location on the nearby River Thames and provides the focal point for our renowned Boat Club.
The admissions process uses the online ISEB Common Pre Test. This exam has a specific format and structure, includes a range of predictable questions types and is taken in an online/computer environment. Students should pay particular attention to the Non-Verbal and Verbal-Reasoning modules, as these sections may include question types they have never encountered before.
