Welcome to The John Hampden School
Welcome to the website of the John Hampden School Wendover. We hope you enjoy browsing the site to learn more about our school, as well as giving you a flavour of what the school can offer your child.
The John Hampden School is an infant school teaching children from 3 to 7 years old. Staff and governors work hard to ensure that children are happy and challenged and leave the school with the highest levels of attainment they are capable of. The school is very proud of its achievements and its excellent reputation.
"High expectations and warm, caring relationships ensure that children make good or better progress, particularly in English and mathematics. The school is a calm, welcoming and nurturing environment."
"Pupils’ behaviour is exemplary, and pupils are polite both to staff and to each other. Parents and carers overwhelmingly support the work of the school."
"Pupils enjoy their school and love to learn."
"Pupils’ high achievement, the school’s focus on developing pupils’ understanding of the core values, and the strong transition programmes, ensure that pupils are very well prepared for the next stage in their education."
