Thomas’s provides a forward-thinking, outward-looking education, based on a strong set of values, for boys and girls in central London aged 2.5 to 18 years old.
Thomas's offers a world-class, relevant, four-dimensional curriculum with entry points at aged 2.5 (Kindergarden), 4+, 7+, 8+, 11+, 13+ and 16+
Thomas's College
Thomas's College is a selective co-educational day and weekly boarding school for students from 11 to 18. Our standard entry points are at 11+, 13+ and 16+.
Our approach is radical and innovative: we offer a curriculum that combines traditional excellence and the assurance offered by GCSEs and A-Levels, alongside brand new qualifications that prepare students to be independent thinkers and makers, ready for the changing world that lies ahead of them.
We believe that we will offer more choice, more breadth of real-world experience, and a more personalised education than any other comparable UK school.
Our admissions process is innovative. While we take cognitive ability into account, we do not believe it is beneficial to require primary school children to practice reductive multiple-choice questions, rotate cubes in their heads, or rack their brains for synonyms. This latter approach emphasises preparation, can create stress and, in our view, has limited real-world application. Instead, we look for playfulness of mind, creativity, character and we believe potential for achievement. We work hard to ensure an honest and fair selection process that protects and preserves childhood.
As a selective school our cohorts are high-ability. However, our admissions process ensures that this ability is diverse and champions different types of intelligence. We believe that students who think and create in a range of ways learn best from and alongside each other. We assess holistically and we build year groups with great care to ensure we bring together a mix of students who will help spur each other on to a wide range of achievements all of their own.
Thomas's Battersea
Thomas’s Battersea is a busy, thriving, purposeful school, educating 560 boys and girls between the ages of four and 13. As you would expect of any Thomas’s school, the most important school rule is to 'Be Kind'. We offer a rich and broad curriculum, with Art, Ballet, Drama, ICT, French, Music and PE all taught by specialist teachers from a child’s first day in school.
Thomas's Battersea standard entry points are Reception (4+), 7+, 8+ and 11+.
Thomas's Clapham
Thomas's Clapham is an exciting place, a modern and forward looking school. We are a selective co-ed day school for pupils aged 4 to 13. Our main entry points are Reception (4+) and Year 7 (11+). However we welcome applications for 'occasional places' in Years 1 to 6 and 8.
