St James Schools are independent day schools based in London and Surrey offering a unique holistic education, based on a philosophical and humanist approach. The Nursery, Prep School and Senior Girls’ School are located together in West London, close to Hammersmith and Kensington Olympia. The Senior Boys’ School is located on a 30-acre site in Ashford, Surrey.
In keeping with the ethos of St James Schools, the children practise regular “Pauses” (times of quiet) throughout the day to promote their appreciation and understanding of mindfulness.
St James cares for a child’s spirit, mind and body. All pupils study Philosophy to explore and challenge ideas in a respectful and inclusive way, and to be equipped with the lifelong benefits of a wise and inquisitive mind.
Creating a vegetarian school in 1975 was a reflection of the belief that humans should be kind to themselves, others, and the environment to grow holistically.
