Private School (Fee Paying) Boys 11 - 18 Years Day

Hamptonians are friendly, lively and unpretentious.

Our School is a community where success is based upon aspiring to personal best rather than the pursuit of narrowly-defined targets.

We welcome academically-minded boys from both maintained and independent schools, irrespective of ethnic group and background, and of their religious or non-religious beliefs

Word From The Head

I wish you a warm welcome to Hampton, a happy and vibrant independent day school for boys aged 11 – 18.

Hampton epitomises academic and all-round excellence, achieved through a well-balanced and highly enjoyable education that enables boys to develop into well-rounded, fulfilled individuals, who are inspired not only to make sense of the world but also to want to go out and improve it.

The School remains distinctive as one of the UK’s top academic schools, while also being among the country’s most successful sporting schools, and leading educational settings for music, drama and community partnerships. All pupils are encouraged to follow their own path, and no-one is funnelled down a particular route; each boy can explore his own interests and discover his own passions.

Standards are extremely high and result naturally and organically from the fun boys have at Hampton and their enthusiastic involvement in the huge range of opportunities on offer. Most importantly of all, our pupils understand the deep-rooted significance we place upon community, camaraderie and supporting those around them with kindness and respect. Hamptonians remain notable through their grounded and well-balanced approach to life – proving that nice guys can be winners too! This is the true essence of Hampton: it is the Hampton way and continues to be our School’s stand-out feature.

I warmly encourage you to visit us, with your son, to see what we have to offer and to speak with me, my colleagues and especially our pupils.
