Description

The Hampshire School Chelsea is Independent Secondary school in Non-selective for kids aged 2 to 13 (Gender - 2 to 13 )

The Hampshire School Chelsea is a leading co-educational, independent day school for pupils aged 3 to 13 years located in the heart of Chelsea, London. It was founded in 1928 by the visionary artist, teacher and celebrated actress, June Hampshire, as an academically ambitious school with roots in the performing arts. At the Hampshire School Chelsea, we introduce our very young children to the thrill of learning in a warm and nurturing environment. Our Early Years children develop outstanding social, language, aesthetic and academic skills. The children learn through play and the curriculum and play based experiences are purposeful ensuring each child is supported and challenged at their own pace.

Facilities

Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) Programme
They are aware that pupils enter our EYFS setting at a variety of stages in maturity and academic ability, and that children learn in different ways. We cater for children's individual needs within each area of the curriculum, building on their existing understanding and experiences. In play, children learn much about themselves and the world around them. The children are, therefore, given daily opportunities to explore and investigate in free play situations alongside their more formal teaching. Forest School supplements the indoor provision with the outdoor environment to develop independence, improve language and decision making and raise self-esteem through small achievable tasks

Pre-Prep
In Pre-Prep, pupils at The Hampshire School Chelsea build on their academic, arts, sports and social skills with our tailored all-round curriculum. Their class teacher facilitates the differentiated learning for the core subjects so that all can achieve their full potential within a safe and inspiring environment.The five school Core Values of Community, Resilience, Excellence, Responsibility and Respect enhance academic and pastoral care and enable the pupils to take ownership of their learning.

Pupils are encouraged and praised as they master new and more complex concepts.
