- LAE is in Stratford, East London, right next to the station and the Olympic Park. We are a sixth form that teaches only the A levels most favored by leading universities and employers. London Academy of Excellence is the academic sixth form for independent thinkers. We are committed to our sixth formers developing the knowledge, skills, and interests that will give them broad and rich life choices in a complex and changing future. This academy was established in 2012 to provide opportunities for students seeking a high-quality academic education in facilitating subjects and access to places at top universities. LAE has quickly established itself as the place to do just this. In just five short years, the Academy has rapidly gained a well-deserved local and national reputation as one of the UK’s leading state sixth providers, consistently securing some of the best A-level results in the country and sending more than 450 of our sixth formers to Russell Group universities. Since opening in September 2012, LAE has established a strong reputation for academic excellence across London and has consistently delivered the best outcomes for its students. At LAE we are also firmly committed to developing the whole student. Beyond the confines of the classroom, sixth formers participate in a rich and varied co-curricular program, including sport, music, and the performing arts, which further enables each to explore their interests, develop their character, and maximize their unique talents. Students have a strong sense of pride in belonging in the diverse, inclusive, high-performing, and friendly LAE community and leave us after two years of study ready to make a positive contribution to the wider world as to future leaders in their fields. The academy has strong links with several independent schools. Our core values underpin all of our thoughts, words, and actions. We are proud to be an inclusive school community that promotes equality and an environment where cultural and religious diversity is regarded as positive and everyone can feel that they can express their viewpoints and beliefs in safety. The British Values of democracy, rule of law, individual liberty, and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs are embedded throughout the school experience. Our core values are Excellence, Humility, Independence, Kindness, Resilience, and Respect. Our active Student Council plays a large role in exemplifying these values, as does our House system and the numerous charity events and activities that take place. Our students engage intellectually with controversial and contemporary issues through the lecture program, PSHE tutorials, and a large number of educational trips and visits that take place. The values and ethos of the school make it a truly special environment to study and work in. We hope you will be struck as you walk through the corridors at LAE by the high level of academic buzz and intellectual curiosity. These characteristics are palpable. Sixth formers and staff alike come in each day with a desire and intent to stretch themselves and share their fascination for their subjects. A love of learning for its own sake is at the heart of every lesson. This ethos is key to preparing our sixth formers for life at university, where they will follow their academic passions to an even higher level. Before LAE opened in 2012, there was a genuine paucity of opportunities for students in this area to take facilitating A levels and access top universities. We have quickly established ourselves as the place to do this. If you want to secure a place on one of the most competitive university courses, then come to LAE. We have strong links with several independent schools including our six partner schools. Traditionally these schools have been the most successful at securing places for their sixth formers at Oxford, Cambridge, and other Russell Group universities. You won't find these invaluable links at any other school. Coupled with our strong links with the universities themselves, our provision is truly unique and second to none LAE seeks to impart or provide: A love of learning for its own sake. An excellent A-level education gives every sixth former the very best chance of securing a place at a leading university. The most up-to-date and well-researched guidance on university application and careers. Enthusiasm for the world beyond the classroom – in a particular sport, music, and the performing arts. Respect for the difference in others and a recognition that the efforts and achievement of every individual in our community are valued equally. View full school

- London Academy is a richly diverse and vibrant community with over 1500 students and 200 staff dedicated to the highest standards and achievement for every young person. Our motto is “Leaders for Tomorrow”. The education our young people receive is designed to encourage active participation in shaping the future world through the local, national, and ultimately, international community. We aim to realize the huge potential in students and staff through a relentless focus on learning underpinned by our belief that there are no limits to what can be achieved with continuous effort and practice. London Academy is a culturally diverse school. At the Academy, we strongly believe that tolerance is gained through knowledge and understanding. This is achieved through equipping students with the ability to understand their place in a culturally diverse society and by giving them opportunities to experience such diversity within the school community. Through our curriculum and the routines of our daily school life, we strive to demonstrate tolerance and help students to become knowledgeable and understanding citizens who can build a better Britain for the future – Leaders for Tomorrow. We recognize not only the importance of allowing students to flourish academically but we also embrace our wider role in preparing them for adult life beyond the formal examined curriculum. Part of our role in that preparation is ensuring that we promote and reinforce British values to our students. Our mission statement states that students from London Academy will be among the leaders for tomorrow. By providing a safe and supportive environment, London Academy aims to develop in its students, skills, and values that will enable them to live their lives as respectful, caring, and responsible citizens. The Academy accepts admissions from all those entitled to an education under British law, including students of all faiths or none. As a diverse school, we recognize the multi-cultural, multi-faith, and ever-changing nature of the United Kingdom. We follow equal opportunities guidance which guarantees that there will be no discrimination against any individual or group, regardless of faith, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, political or financial status, or similar. We also understand and recognize our vital role in ensuring that groups or individuals within the academy are not subjected to intimidation or radicalization by those wishing to unduly, or illegally, influence them. Our curriculum prepares children for life in British Society this includes developing the understanding and use of money, effective reading and writing skills, collaboration, and discussion to research ideas and concepts. Curriculum themes include historical and geographical study in the context of the United Kingdom as well as national and international comparisons. The Government emphasizes that schools are required to ensure that key ‘British Values’ are taught in all UK schools. The government set out its definition of British values in the 2011 Prevent Strategy and this was reinforced in 2014: promoting British Values as part of SMSC in Schools. These new regulations sit alongside the requirements of the Equalities Act. Our students will encounter rules and laws throughout their entire lives. We want our students to understand that whether these laws govern the class, the school, the neighborhood, or the country, they are set for good reasons and must be adhered to. Students are taught the value and reasons behind rules and laws, that they govern and protect us, the responsibilities that this involves, and the consequences when laws are broken. Mutual respect is at the core of our school life, forming a key value. Students learn to treat each other and staff with respect. Students learn that their behaviors affect their rights and those of others. In line with our commitment to democracy, students are always able to voice their opinions and we foster an environment where students are safe to disagree with each other. Mutual respect is embraced throughout the curriculum. View full school

- As the west of Scotland’s only day and boarding school, Lomond School welcomes families from around the world to enjoy a first-class education and lifestyle from ages 3 to 18. Our unique location in the coastal town of Helensburgh, on the edge of Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park, provides a perfect setting to deliver a rounded education that inspires achievement and enquiring minds. Whether they have lived locally all their lives or have joined us as international borders, our pupils and their families benefit from joining a welcoming community with a distinct family atmosphere. Academic success is at the core of what we achieve at Lomond, backed up by a strong emphasis on developing our young people through involvement in a wide range of activities closely linked to our school philosophy and values. At Lomond School, we prepare our pupils for their future by ensuring that they learn the skills necessary to be successful in the 21st century whilst developing the traditional values and qualities that they require to be responsible and active global citizens. Lomond School seamlessly blends the old with the new. A visit to Clarendon, which makes up part of our Junior School, is a clear example of this, with its beautifully restored period features sitting comfortably alongside the latest technology. Indeed, many facilities at Lomond School are enviable, with a purpose-built sports complex, modern and homely boarding house, and a 1:1 iPad program for all pupils from Transitus 1 (Primary 6) to Senior 6. As with any Independent School, we have an excellent track record of academic attainment, but that is only a part of what we offer. I believe that the purpose of education should be to develop the whole child and at Lomond, we do this in a supportive, nurturing, and inspirational environment, with small classes that allow every one of our pupils to be known and recognized as individuals, receiving a personalized education that allows them to work towards their full potential. At Lomond School, we believe that balance is what drives happiness and success. Here, at Lomond School, the focus is balanced with opportunities for adventure and the discovery of new skills. Traditional values are married with innovative thinking and inspirational teaching and as the west of Scotland’s only boarding school, a strong British education is complemented by an international school community. Our pupils have access to fantastic facilities and passionate teachers and support staff who nurture each child’s progress. Our love for the outdoors and learning beyond the classroom presents a unique opportunity for our young people to develop a huge range of skills that build confidence and can be applied to academic learning and life beyond school. At Lomond, pupils enjoy a lifestyle where a culture of hard work permeates but is complemented by a sense of fun and adventure. Whether pupils join at Sixth Form or complete their whole education at the school, Lomond’s young people leave with a strong sense of achievement and an appetite for lifelong learning. The best way to see this yourself is to arrange a visit to our school, where you will be warmly welcomed by our Lomond School family. View full school

- Welcome to Lockers Park, A Private Pre-Prep and Prep School in Hertfordshire. Lockers Park blends forward-thinking and kinaesthetic learning within a traditional prep school environment. Whether your child is a bookworm, a sportsman, a budding scientist, or an all-rounder, our approach centers around each child, allowing them to gain confidence and flourish. The curriculum includes structured sport every day, which not only promotes sporting excellence but also leads to increased concentration and academic success. This approach is the same today as that instituted by the School’s first Headmaster 145 years ago. For us, social and emotional development goes hand-in-hand with academic progression, enabling pupils to become independent thinkers and develop moral principles. Mutual respect, high personal standards, honesty, and tolerance form the foundation of all our teaching, ably summarized by our school motto – Bene Agere ac Laetari – good results, good manners, good fun. Lockers Park boys leave as well-rounded individuals, self-motivated and ready for the excitement and challenges of senior school life. Our excellent academic record sees many pupils move on to the country’s leading public and independent senior schools including Bedford School, Berkhamsted School, Eton College, Harrow School, and St Albans School –see Destination Schools. We have an open and inclusive community where pupils are encouraged to value and be supportive of each other. Our recent ISI Inspection highlighted the cooperative and caring ethos at Lockers Park. Indeed, there is tangible energy and warmth within our community, much commented upon by current parents and visitors. Lockers Park has been educating boys to the highest standard for over 140 years offering pupils a first-class education that is both balanced and happy. The school holds an exemplary record of winning awards and scholarships to leading senior schools such as Bedford, Eton, Harrow, Haileybury, and Radley to name but a few. Sitting within 23 acres of beautiful woodland, Lockers Park is ideally situated in the heart of Hertfordshire with easy access to both London and several key airports. At Lockers Park we are committed to developing each boy as a whole, seeking to build independence and resilience alongside self-confidence and self-esteem. We understand that ‘sit still and listen’ does not always ensure good results when it comes to schooling boys. Our staff have a progressive, supportive attitude and employ a practical approach to ensure that the boys are highly engaged in the classroom and achieve the very best academic results. Small class sizes (a maximum of 16) and a creative curriculum partnered with a strong focus on outdoor play and structured sport every day ensure the children are happy, energetic, and well-motivated. In 2015, we expanded our Early Years and Key Stage 1 provision with the launch of a purpose-designed co-educational Pre-Preparatory for boys and girls aged 4 to 7. This modern, light space sitting to the side of the main Prep School blends the more structured environment of the classroom with the freedom to learn around Lockers Park’s beautiful green setting. Children at the Pre-Prep can take advantage of the school’s full range of facilities including sports, science, music, and drama. The Pre-Prep has proved a real success and we encourage parents to come and take a look as early as possible. View full school
