Members of the Hampton Common Room and our pupils offer academic support and enrichment with a number of our partner schools.
Pupils Working Together
A key aspect of school partnerships is the benefit that can be gained from engagement and collaboration between pupils. through different schemes and peer mentoring and team-based initiatives, pupils learn new skills, build confidence and develop their talents.
Fourth Year Hamptonians help out at lunchtimes in local primary schools to help with reading classes and maths for children as part of their Duke of Edinburgh Award. Pupils in the Sixth Form also carry out one timetabled six-week block of community service as part of their Curriculum Enrichment periods.
