At Hampton, we strive to maintain a balance between a little bit of tradition and a healthy dose of appropriate, forward-facing innovation. I want everyone here to aim high, as it is my strong belief that this helps cultivate a sense of confidence and curiosity, ensuring that each child at our school feels valued and inspired.
Of course, we are a team, and I am proud to be part of a community where the collective wisdom and expertise of my colleagues shines through. This week, in our staff professional development sessions, we took a few more steps towards deepening our understanding of how to ensure pupils are thinking about their thinking, and how that intellectual behaviour becomes visible and sits alongside our knowledge rich curriculum. This shared commitment is a key reason why I believe our standards remain so high, and why the boys and girls in our care make such tremendous progress as a consequence. Long may this continue!
