Examination Results & University Destinations
Hampton is one of the top academic schools in the country and pupils achieve exceptional results that enable them to move on to the world's leading universities.
A Level Choices
We believe that A Levels currently provide the best post-16 education model for our pupils offering excellent preparation for university and beyond.
On joining the Sixth Form, pupils select their A Level subjects from 25 options with guidance from the academic and careers teams. This is the opportunity to pursue subjects that fascinate you in far greater depth than any you have taken so far in your school career.
Electives
In addition to three main A Levels (or four if studying Further Maths), all Hamptonians choose one of three Elective routes to take through their Lower Sixth year.
Our Electives Programme provides pupils with exceptional opportunities to go beyond the confines of A Level specifications, allowing every pupil to take an individual journey of learning and exploration through the Sixth Form.
Stretch & Challenge
ISI inspectors have commented on the intellectual rigour demonstrated by Hamptonians – their ‘insatiable thirst for knowledge’ and outstanding levels of skills and understanding in all areas of learning that are ‘well in advance of age-related expectations’
Extension’ learning is offered across most topics and provides a dynamic and enriching experience for pupils keen to go beyond the A Level syllabus. Extension classes are invaluable preparation for pupils planning to take university admission tests and attend interviews.
Extended Learning Programme
The HELP project is an independent piece of work on a topic which you particularly enjoy. This research together with the analytical, organisational and critical thinking skills that you will learn, will not only enhance your A Level studies but also assist you in securing places at the world’s most competitive universities. These skills are also highly valued by employers looking for the next generation of innovators and leaders.
Super-curricular
We offer a wide range of super-curricular activities that are learning experiences that go beyond the curriculum, focusing on deeper engagement with a subject and allowing pupils to follow their passion and curiosity in particular topics.
