Lady Eleanor Holles School is a girls’ independent day school in Hampton, London. It was founded in 1710 and boasts a number of cutting-edge facilities, including the Millennium Boat House on the Thames and a 330-seat theatre, winner of the RIBA London Award. [1]
Rated by the ISI as ‘excellent’ across all inspected areas, LEHS is widely noted for its competitive ethos and balanced academic provision. The syllabus is characterised by abundance, allowing girls to easily identify their strengths, whether they be languages, sciences or technology, among others.
The extracurricular provision is just as extensive, introducing girls to a wealth of activities that best suit their abilities. The opportunities on offer range from robotics and chess to debating and Amnesty International, complementing the vibrant school life that makes LEHS stand out. [2]
The entirety of the school’s community thrives on respect, support and consideration, encouraging pupils to discover who they truly are and thus set their goals with clarity of mind. Championing individuality, LEHS encourages the pursuit of challenge as vital to character growth, mouilding girls into the role-models of today and leaders of tomorrow.
