We are delighted that Thames was judged Excellent in all categories by the Independent Schools Inspectorate in its Educational Quality Inspection in April 2022. Click here to read the full report.

These are exciting times for Thames. As we begin our third decade, there is increased awareness that young people require an education that prepares them to navigate life successfully. Faced with a fluid, and at times uncertain, world, they increasingly need to develop exceptional soft skills, resilience and deep-rooted values.

Academic rigour is foundational for us at Thames. However we are passionate about far more than this. We enjoy seeing young people understand their value, learn to honour and encourage others and contribute to the wider school community.

Small classes and excellent pastoral care enable us to challenge and support each individual in their learning and in building good interpersonal skills. Our ethos of compassion, respect and humility enables young people to grow in confidence and their appreciation of each other.

With our new building adjacent to Clapham Junction station complete our pupils now have the state of the art facilities that they deserve. At five times the floor area of our old facility the new space includes multiple science laboratories, DT workshops, a food technology room, library, PE hall/theatre and a dance/drama studio.

As well as A levels from September 2023, our new sixth form will offer a co-curricular and pastoral programme that will see our pupils further develop their leadership skills and understanding of the world so that they are prepared for a successful future.

If you would like to find out more about Thames, we would love to hear from you.
