Lieu du poste : Londres, Hampton Court

Hampton Court House is a fast-growing co-educational independent school situated in beautiful riverside parkland between Richmond and Hampton in southwest London. The school has just over 300 pupils from Early Years through to Year 13. Hampton Court House was shortlisted for the TES Independent School Awards 2020, ‘Senior School of the Year’. It is important to us that children enjoy being here and look forward to coming to school. We wish to lay the foundations of a lifelong love of learning and believe in holistic education that values academic rigour as well as positive mental health and the benefits of experiential learning. We believe in critical thinking and questioning our beliefs and standing up for what is right.
We believe that children need some (guided) freedom in order to develop their own style with taste and discretion. Pupils and staff have mutual respect for each other. The staff, including the Headmaster, are addressed by their first names. Whilst there is a dress code, there is no uniform.
