Learn Like a Londoner
Welcome to London Park Schools
I am delighted to introduce you to London Park Schools, an exciting new group that is redefining secondary education in London.
Today’s world requires a fresh approach — one that fosters not only academic success but also the skills needed for the workplaces of the future. At LPS, we champion an education that emphasises collaboration, problem-solving, creativity, confidence, and a broader, ethical perspective.
Our group comprises three 11-16 offers — LPS Clapham, LPS Mayfair, and LPS Hybrid — each providing the close-knit, supportive environment of a smaller school while benefiting from being part of our larger, collaborative network. These three feed into our shared sixth form, LPS Sixth, where students from across the group come together to deepen their studies, broaden their perspectives, and prepare confidently for their next steps.
The following pages offer a window into the vibrant life at LPS and the innovative learning experiences we provide. With inspiring spaces — both inside and out — engaged staff and motivated students, we are a community dedicated to modern education, kindness, individuality, and preparing every student for a bright future.
I encourage you to visit us and experience us in action. There is no better way to understand the advantages of our approach — ‘smaller schools for bigger thinking’ — and to see what it truly means to ‘learn like a Londoner.
Thank you for considering London Park Schools. I hope that the following pages help you to imagine the possibilities that London Park Schools can provide for your child’s future within a community that looks forward, embraces potential, and celebrates each student’s unique path to success.

There’s a London Park School for everyone
Each London Park School has its own unique personality and specialty. From integrated learning in leafy Clapham to fully embracing the heart of London in Mayfair, or the flexible approach of our Hybrid offer, each of our three co-ed 11-16 schools provides an exciting and more personal approach to education.
This continues at LPS Sixth, which offers students excellent preparation for university and life beyond school.
Our schools are united by a forward-thinking approach, unmatched flexibility, and a commitment to reflecting London’s vibrant diversity.

London Park School Hybrid
LPS Hybrid provides an innovative blend of online and in-school learning, perfect for students seeking flexibility while maintaining a supportive, community-oriented and ‘real’ school experience.
With its unique model of four days online and one in-school, LPS Hybrid allows students to experience the best of both worlds; a strong, supportive online community with live lessons, coupled with one day physically in school. This flexible approach enables
students who, for whatever reason, may not be able to access school fulltime, to thrive within a connected, collaborative community.
A unique approach to modern learning combining live online lessons with one day in-school.
London Park School Sixth
Providing more structure than a college and more freedom than a school, LPS Sixth is the ideal stepping stone to university and life beyond. Dedicated to enabling students’ ambitions, LPS Sixth combines a balanced approach to independence, support, and a personalised experience within a smaller, close-knit community that delivers strong results.
We provide the support and guidance that students need to excel. Our London Leadership programme offers talks, trips, challenges and tailored work experience that develop each student’s strengths and help them fulfil their ambitions and aspirations.
Our London Pathways analysis enables us to offer over 400+ A Level combinations that are tailored to real-world careers, and our unique Flexi-Sixth approach means students can take some of those courses on-line if desired. We also offer the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) and provide excellent career and university support by drawing on the strengths of our parent, Dukes Education.
All LPS students have a seamless transition to LPS Sixth where they are joined by students from other schools.

Learning like a Londoner
Our schools reflect all that makes London so exciting. We brim with creativity, innovation and diversity. We are tolerant, inclusive and exciting. We are situated in some of London’s most iconic locations.
Our Four ‘Cs’ for Success
Creativity
With a strong focus on the arts and innovation, we nurture the problem-solving skills that students can apply to all areas of their lives.
Compassion
Kindness and empathy are central to LPS, ensuring all students feel valued and supported and apply the same values to each other.
Courage
By instilling confidence and resilience, we prepare our students to face challenges head-on.
Collaboration
Students learn the important skills of teamwork and emotional intelligence, equipping them for the interconnected world and the roles of the future.
At London Park Schools we aim to achieve our vision by:
• Developing a community and culture that lives up to our values
• Championing every child so that they can maximise their strengths
• Ensuring our students leave us with the confidence and skills to thrive in the future world
A broad and all-encompassing approach to education
We provide students with a robust foundation for the next step, whatever that might be. We believe that exams are part of the journey, not the destination, and that education should be broad-based, exciting and expansive. We help students develop the skills needed for future success and have an experiential, integrated approach to learning.
Personalised Academic Excellence
We offer a strong academic programme tailored to individual strengths and aspirations, with small class sizes that allow for personalised teaching and close connections between staff and students. Students take 8-9 GCSEs and 3-4 A Levels across a broad range of subjects.

Pastoral Care
Pastoral care is at the heart of the LPS experience. Each school is deliberately smaller with a close-knit community where students are genuinely known, valued, and supported. Dedicated counsellors, mentoring programmes, and a focus on well-being ensures that every student feels safe, confident, and able to thrive.
Learning in Action
We believe in the power of learning by doing and take every opportunity to enable students to grow through new experiences, whether that’s studying marine conservation on a tall ship, learning about climate change in the Alps, studying art in New York, skiing in Italy, or simply taking a more hands-on approach to everyday learning whenever possible.
Rich Co-Curricular and Extra-Curricular Offering
Each LPS site provides an extensive range of co-curricular and extra-curricular activities designed to broaden horizons and develop well-rounded individuals. From leadership and public speaking to sports and creative clubs, these activities offer students experiential opportunities to explore new interests and develop important lifelong skills.
A Thriving Arts Programme
Creativity fosters the development of problem-solving and innovative thinking and is central to the LPS offer, with strong programmes in art, DT, drama, and music. Students are encouraged to express themselves through visual arts, theatre, and a range of music genres, with regular performances, exhibitions, and productions that showcase their talents.
We believe that exams are ‘part of the journey, not the destination’.
Broad Sporting Opportunities
We want students to enjoy being active and offer both traditional team sports as well as more individual forms of exercise. LPS offers a diverse array of sports, from traditional team sports to individual activities using sporting facilities across the capital. Students can participate in both individual and esoteric sports such as climbing, padel ball, cycling and frisbee as well as more traditional team sports. We work collaboratively across sites to offer bigger opportunities and share sports days. Our Sixth formers have their own small gym or can use the facilities of the nearby Queen Mother centre.
Excellent Learning Enrichment and Support
We recognise that every student may need additional help or further extension from time to time to help them realise their full potential. Learning enrichment is offered as a positive and individualised way to enable students to do and be their best — and we do it exceptionally well.
Dynamic LondonBased Learning
We take full advantage of our locations, integrating London’s cultural and professional resources into our curricula. Students enjoy trips to museums, galleries, theatres, and other institutions, which enrich their learning and provide a real-world context to their studies.
Part of the Dukes Education Family
As a member of the Dukes Education family, LPS students benefit from additional resources and guidance in careers and university applications. Dukes provides support for Oxbridge and leading international universities, as well as specialist resources for those pursuing medical or law careers, ensuring that our students are well-prepared for their next steps.
