Ethos and values

At LPS Mayfair we believe education is about growing minds, growing character, and growing the values that shape how we treat one another.

Our school ethos, ‘Learn Like a Londoner’ reflects our location at the heart of a global capital and our embrace of the energy, diversity, and opportunity that it brings. It means learning from the world around us, being curious, open-minded, and bold in our thinking.

The LPS values: Our four ‘Cs’ of success

Our four Cs are at the heart of all that we do. These values empower each student to think independently, engage actively, develop the important problem-solving skills necessary for future success, and learn to lead with integrity.
  • Creativity: With a strong focus on the arts and innovation, we nurture the problem-solving skills that students can apply to all areas of their lives.
  • Compassion: Kindness and empathy are central to LPS, ensuring all students feel valued and supported and apply the same values to each other.
  • Courage: By instilling confidence and resilience, we prepare our students to face challenges head-on.
  • Collaboration: Students learn the important skills of teamwork and emotional intelligence, equipping them for the interconnected world and the roles of the future.

These powerful values are embedded into every part of school life, from how we teach and learn, to how we resolve challenges, build community, and encourage responsibility.

They shape not only who our students are today, but the citizens, creators and leaders they’re becoming.
