Join the Bassett House Family in 2025

The first year of your child’s educational journey is crucial, and at Bassett House, we provide a warm, nurturing environment where your child can thrive. We invite you to tour our school, meet our Head, Mr. Woodward, and see firsthand how we foster a love for learning from day one.

From September 2025, we will also be accepting children into our Nursery School from the age of 2.

Why choose Bassett House?

  1. We focus on what children can do: achievement comes in all forms. We send children to London’s most academically selective schools, and also less academically selective schools, but where children are happy and parents are delighted. We celebrate each child’s success but do not limit academic potential.
  2. We teach Bassett pupils to be rounded and grounded: our pupils are balanced. We focus on the very best of what an independent education offers: outstanding adult to pupil ratios; a creative curriculum, full of music, drama and art; and a breadth of co-curricular clubs and activities to maximise the value of the school day.
  3. We are an arts-rich school: we place huge importance on the learning of art, drama and music. At Bassett House the teaching of these three subjects by specialist teachers engages children with the arts from the very beginning of their learning.
  4. We are a smaller school and celebrate the fact that girls and boys are known by all our teachers. We are small enough to be bespoke and big enough to thrive.
  5. We have a team of staff that work together with brilliant effect. We have an outstanding team of staff that are each united in giving the very best to Bassett pupils.
