Hampton School has a healthy tradition of Religious Studies and Philosophy at all levels. The GCSE and AS Level courses are popular and extremely well-supported, regularly drawing some of the School’s brightest pupils.

Around 75% of our Upper Sixth cohorts over the past three years have chosen to pursue these subjects at university. Indeed, we regularly send students to read Philosophy and Theology courses at Oxford, Cambridge, and other leading universities. Our aim is to provide genuinely imaginative, varied, and challenging courses at all levels in the School.

Although full guidelines and support material are provided for all the courses we teach, the ethos of the Department is to encourage individual teachers to shape the basic themes and material according to their own enthusiasms and specialisms, and the developing interests of the class groups.

We seek to create a classroom ethos of collaboration and discussion, in response to a variety of high-quality stimuli. The last few years have seen a significant growth in the range of departmental resources, and we are excited by the enrichment that this continuing process provides.
