Links with Hampton School
At LEH, we know that girls thrive in an environment designed just for them. Research consistently shows that single-sex education helps girls unlock their full potential – giving them the confidence, freedom, and support to explore, experiment, and excel.
We recognise however, that there are many benefits of co-educational interaction and collaboration outside of academics, which is why we foster strong partnerships with our neighbours, Hampton School.
