The Curriculum
A dynamic curriculum emphasising creativity, critical thinking, and practical skills with integrated and experiential learning at the core enables us to move through subjects quickly, capture imaginations and create strong, independent learners – with great results.
Games & The Arts
Inclusive and co-educational. Weekly sports and shared events with sibling, LPS Clapham. Emphasis on enabling students to find activities they enjoy – whether traditional team sports or more esoteric and individual. Elite sports pathway. Wide range of extracurricular clubs – including sports every day. Rowing commencing from Summer 24.
Art and Design are central with very strong creative focus.
Pastoral Care
As a smaller school, community is everything. The happiness of each child is central to offer and there’s a strong focus on bespoke, personal care and helping students develop skills to navigate complexities of life – before needed. Excellent tutorial system and on-site counsellor. Stretching and support given in equal measure.
Recent Scholarships
Students move on to sibling LPS Sixth Form.
Head Teacher’s Philosophy
As a smaller school we offer personal attention, nurture agility, promote creativity and problem-solving, a philosophy encapsulated in our mantra, ‘smaller schools for bigger thinking.’ We offer a ‘breath of fresh air’ in an overheated London secondary market. We embrace and represent the diversity of London.
Outstanding Characteristics
A dynamic, fresh-thinking smaller school offering more individualised learning in a smaller environment, within a supportive group structure to provide ‘bigger school’ opportunities – including a stand-alone sixth form. We make great use of central London facilities with flexibility to visit exhibitions etc at a moment’s notice. The collaborative leadership team behind the London Park Schools group comprises Principal Suzie Longstaff; LPS Clapham Head, Susan Brooks; and Adrian Rainbow, Head of LPS Mayfair and LPS Sixth.
