The Learning Support department consists of a full-time Head of Learning Support based at Prep and a part-time Head of Learning Support at Pre-Prep, as well as Learning Support Assistants and Teaching Assistants who work on both School sites.

Our specialist teachers offer expertise and help to resolve difficulties, and promote positive solutions for pupils experiencing barriers to their learning.

We employ a range of strategies to achieve this including:

  • Identification and assessment of individual needs
  • Designing individual learning programmes
  • Advising and working with colleagues both academic and pastoral
  • Liaising with external agencies
  • Providing accessibility through a range of resources

We work in close partnership with parents to formulate an effective strategy to support those pupils at Hampton Pre-Prep & Prep who need additional support or have particular needs. Our nurturing environment provides opportunities for us to quickly identify strengths and areas for development, and we provide all pupils with the best possible opportunities to enable them to learn.

EYFS Learning Support

If at any point a pupil’s progress in one of the Prime or Specific areas of learning raises concern, class teachers will initiate a discussion with parents to agree on practical and supportive next steps. These may include in-class strategies, small group interventions, or targeted 1:1 support delivered by a member of the Learning Support team.

Should additional support be required, the Head of Learning Support, Head of Pre-Prep and teaching staff will work collaboratively with parents to explore the involvement of external specialists, such as speech and language therapists or occupational therapists.

Further information about our learning support provision is available in the Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) Policy, which can be accessed here.
