BERKHAMPSTEAD IS A HAPPY
AND NURTURING SCHOOL
WHERE EVERY CHILD IS
ENCOURAGED TO BE THE
BEST THEY CAN BE.
We adopt an all-inclusive approach in which every child is valued
equally, regardless of ability, and we provide each one of them with the
opportunity to reach their potential in all areas while they are with us.
We strive to instil a love of learning which the children will carry with
them to their future schools.
We are proud of all our children and what they achieve. Our success in
Music, Sport, Art and Chess is very impressive, and our academic results
are exceptional, particularly considering that we are a non-selective
school. We believe that small classes and subject specialist teaching
enables our happy children to flourish.
