Overview
Providing a first-class 21st century education from a historically significant setting, Eaton Square Senior School (LPS Mayfair and LPS Sixth from September 2024), offers a truly unique, co-educational learning opportunity for London day students aged 11-18. An Eaton Square education is impressively well-rounded, championing academic achievement alongside individual talents, leadership skills and personal values.
Pastoral Care
Outstanding pastoral care lies at the heart of each and every school day. Eaton Square is a warm, welcoming and supportive environment in the heart of England’s bustling capital. The entire School community takes great pride in ensuring each student feels valued and develops self-confidence, teamwork and social responsibility: all of which are essential preparation for life beyond school. The School’s size further improves its ability to offer individual care and attention.
Learning in London
As a smaller school, the community really matters so we take time to get to know each student as an individual. We use a mix of Digital data, Head's reference and our own 'Discovery Days' to find the perfect fit. Our students enjoy a vast range of academic and co-curricular opportunities, both during and after the school day. London is viewed as an extension of the classroom and its many museums, galleries, theatres, sporting venues, historic buildings and Royal Parks are truly maximised.
Values and Life Preparation
We are committed to instilling strong values and preparing students for their future. All student explore areas such as emotional development, careers education, financial planning, leadership in practice, public speaking skills, mindfulness and positive mental health.
Our staff know every student and work closely with them to help them make the choices that are right for them: from GCSE subjects to A Level next steps; extra-curricular activities to friendships.
