Nestled within the beautiful and serene surroundings of Bushy Park near East Molesey on the South West London and Surrey borders, Hampton Court House is an independent co-educational school that offers an exceptional education for children aged 2–18.

Defined by its progressive ethos and unique approach, HCH is a school where academic achievement is seamlessly combined with emotional well-being, individuality, and self-expression.

At the heart of HCH is the philosophy of "Achievement with Heart" – a balance of high academic standards with a nurturing, student-centered environment. Smaller class sizes of not more than 18 allow for personalized learning, ensuring every child’s talents, passions, and potential are fully realized. The non-uniform policy and use of first names between students and teachers create a psychologically safe space where young people thrive.

HCH delivers a rigorous yet holistic curriculum, combining academic excellence with experiential learning, artistic exploration, and language immersion. The results of this progressive approach speak for themselves, as each child is lifted off their academic flightpath: in 2024, 76% of GCSE grades were A/A*, ranking HCH in the top 100 schools nationally in GCSE results in the annual Times survey. 30% of A-Level grades were A/A* with 100% of students accepted to Russell Group universities.

Beyond academics, HCH encourages independent thinking, emotional intelligence, and creativity. It's unique Sixth Form programme uses an evidence based approach which blends academic study with physical and mental health, leadership, cultural literacy, and philanthropy, ensuring students graduate prepared for life – and not just university.

Hampton Court House is more than a school – it's a place where children are seen, valued, and empowered to exceed expectations. With a vibrant, supportive environment and a commitment to individual growth, HCH prepares students not just for academic success, but for life. Hampton Court House was shortlisted for London Independent School of the Year 2024.

Open mornings are held weekly during term time.
