It is my pleasure to welcome you to The London Nautical School.

Situated in the very heart of central London, the school was established over 100 years ago as an educational establishment to help all pupils achieve their full potential, this remains our core purpose. Our aim is for pupils to experience an education that develops all aspects of their personality and encourages them to become well-qualified, secure, happy, young adults able to manage themselves personally, socially, and academically and who are tolerant of difference.

At LNS we believe in excellence for all and have the highest expectations for every one of our pupils.  We want all our young people to enjoy a memorable and successful education in an inclusive environment, where each individual’s unique talents are recognised and valued.  

LNS has a reputation for being a happy, friendly, stimulating and caring environment.  Our success as a school is built upon a strong foundation of high standards, coupled with a relentless focus on improving the quality of teaching, learning and engagement, to ensure that all pupils are given every chance of developing the knowledge, skills and attributes to prepare them for their future through our exciting curriculum. Our school is recognised for the enrichment opportunities we provide to unlock potential, to inspire, challenge and nurture creativity and ambition and we expect all our pupils to be involved in the wider life of the school. 

I am incredibly proud to be the Headteacher at LNS, and I am privileged to lead such dedicated staff and fantastic pupils. We provide an education that develops well-rounded young people who are prepared for the opportunities and challenges of their future lives.

Please feel free to come and visit the school and see this in practice.
