Hampton Togetherness
Hampton is a welcoming and diverse community and life-changing bursaries are at the heart of our ethos. Our pupils come from a large number of different feeder schools and a wide variety of backgrounds.
There are currently 108 boys in the School on completely Free Places, a number of which are funded by The Fitzwygram Foundation, and many more receive financial help with fees known as bursaries. The Fitzwygram Foundation is our dedicated charity which was set up in 2018, with the aim of providing free places to boys who would flourish here but whose families could not otherwise afford a Hampton education.
A sense of mutual support and camaraderie is a defining feature of Hampton life. Kindness is very important and can be found at the heart of our community. Our boys support those around them and celebrate each other’s achievements.
