Alleyn’s Hampstead is an independent, co-educational day school in Hampstead, North London, for pupils aged 2 to 18. Across three campuses in NW3, from our Nursery on Netherhall Gardens to our Senior School and Sixth Form on Rosslyn Hill, every pupil is known, challenged and supported on the journey of Becoming All We Can Be.
As a private school with deep roots in Hampstead and part of the Alleyn’s Schools Group, we pair an ambitious academic curriculum with outstanding pastoral care, and a belief that school should be a river, not a road.
At the heart of our offer is a holistic education across our excellent academic offer, a full and varied co-curricular programme and proactive pastoral care. We live our ethos of ‘All We Can Be’, which supports our pupils to be kind, happy, inspired and, having ‘found their thing’, ready to lead and to make a positive difference in the world.

The Alleyn’s Curriculum
We are proud that our school is a place where children love learning and strive to achieve academically in a well-rounded and inspiring curriculum, based on our school learning dispositions. There are opportunities for children to think and go beyond the traditional curriculum everyday through Aspiring Minds – our speaker and academic enrichment programme. This rich curriculum, from Mathematics to Photography, gives children the opportunity to combine the rigour of traditional subjects with the practical skills and tech confidence they will need for the modern world. Our own AiQ curriculum (Alleyn’s Intelligence Quotient) prepares our pupils for the future, building an agile understanding of tech along with the intellectual skills and ethical principles to use it in the right way.

Extracurricular Life and Pastoral Wellbeing
Outside the classroom, our children can ‘find their thing’ through a wide range of activities, from sport and the performing arts in our Bear pits to music from rock to classical, model UN and Dungeons & Dragon’s Club. Our ‘All In’ co-curricular programme is designed to promote respect, kindness, and empathy while inspiring a sense of wonder at the world of possibilities open to them – encouraging them to try anything and everything as they live the Alleyn’s motto, All We Can Be.
Alleyn’s Hampstead pupils learn and grow in a happy, nurturing environment, benefiting from the Alleyn’s Emotional Quotient (AEQ) – a pastoral programme designed to support proactive wellbeing. We take pride in being a school where children build relationships, develop a strong sense of belonging, and foster a deep sense of community, all within the framework of our ROCCK values (Respect, Opportunity, Courage, Curiosity, and Kindness), with the support and guidance of our highly qualified staff.

Today at the Nursery and Junior School, Pre-Reception made their own poppies to honour the courage, sacrifice, and resilience of those who serve and continue to serve.
Sarah, Head at the Nursery and Junior, also led a special Remembrance Day Assembly for our younger pupils.
We will remember them ❤️
This morning, our school community came together to observe a two-minute silence in honour all of those who served and sacrificed their lives in defence of our nation.
The Last Post bugle call was played by Christian from Camden Music, marking the ...beginning of the two-minute reflection.
Following the Remembrance Ceremony, two of our School Vice Captains, Harry and George, accompanied Charmian Hickman, CEO of the Armed Forces Education Trust, to the grounds of Hampstead Church, where they laid a wreath at one of the memorials commemorating the Soldiers’ Daughters’ Home, a military orphanage founded in 1855 on our site at Rosslyn Hill.
