Hampton Court House
School summary
Set in East Molesey within the borough of Richmond upon Thames, Hampton Court House is a small independent school of around 340 mixed pupils, founded in 2001. Its modest scale, including a sixth form of just 45, allows for an intimate, individually focused approach. Languages run deep here, with both French and Chinese taught, and a quarter of pupils receive some form of SEN support, suggesting a school accustomed to tailoring its provision. Led by Principal Katherine Vintiner, it offers GCSEs, A-levels and the EPQ, and is inspected by the ISI.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, language-rich independent with results that comfortably outpace national averages, well suited to families wanting close attention and a broad academic diet.
That’s where Passmate comes in. Tutoring is the most effective thing in a child’s preparation - a well-tutored child can outperform the vast majority of their peers. Passmate works alongside your tutor, not instead of them: it learns how your child thinks, finds the gaps, and shows the tutor exactly where to spend each session - so the limited time you have lands on what actually decides a place.
Works alongside your child’s tutor - not instead of them.
