Lampton School Newsletter: Week 10 2026-27

Posted on Nov 10th 2026

Monday 9th November 2026

Dear Parents, Carers and Students,

Welcome to our newsletter for the tenth week of the autumn term 2026. It is week B with year assemblies taking place.

The main event taking place in school this week is the first subject enrichment day which takes place on Thursday 12th November. Over 1000 students will be going off-site for day trips to a variety of destinations across London with others taking part in enrichment activities on the school site. It is vital that your child/children remember the following:

Be on time - indeed early for their departure from school or start of their on-site activity. If they are late, the group will be unable to wait for them!

Have consent for attending the off-site activities. Without this they cannot participate.

Ensure that, if required, the payment has been made been made before Thursday.

Remember that they are representing Lampton in the community and show respect throughout the day. We have given students detailed instructions on trip etiquette and look forward to them showing excellence in their conduct.

To be open minded and show a growth mindset to make sure that they gain the most from these enrichment activities.

My thanks to Ms Bolton and Ms Kapoor (Assistant Headteachers) who have led the planning for this day and staff who are leading and accompanying trips. I am looking forward to receiving excellent feedback on the day.

An important reminder that next week sees the MyChildAtSchool (MCAS) app for parents/carers being rolled out to all year groups. Please ensure that you download this app as soon as possible as it gives you current information about your child’s attendance and behaviour at school each day. It is essential parents/carers of pupils in year 9 do this as this will be the only way in which appointments for the year 9 parents’ evening on 10th December can be booked. 

A reminder that next Wednesday, 18th November, is an INSET Day and the school site will be closed for students.

Subject Enrichment Day 12th November 2026

We are delighted to be holding our upcoming Subject Enrichment Day on 12th November, giving students an exciting opportunity to extend their learning beyond the classroom.

All activities are carefully planned and directly linked to curriculum learning, helping students deepen their understanding and make meaningful connections between their subjects and the wider world. Research highlights the positive impact that enrichment opportunities can have on improving academic attainment.

These experiences also help build our Lampton character, developing essential qualities such as intellectual curiosity, kindness, grit and responsibility. We believe education should provide far more than academic qualifications; it should equip young people with the skills and attributes they need to succeed in life.

ParentPay Reminder: Please ensure you have provided consent for your child's participation via ParentPay ahead of the 12th November enrichment day. Please note that attendance of students is expected and attendance protocols apply on day.
