What the school says...
Portland Place School is an independent school for boys and girls aged between 10 – 16 years, located in the heart of central London.
As a school we have always been renowned as a small, nurturing and relaxed place; a wonderful happy alternative to the highly pressurised, exam-orientated London schools.
We believe that exceptional teaching, combined with a modern curriculum inside and outside the classroom, provides the best stimulus for children to become inquisitive, open-minded and creative learners and achieve beyond exams.
We cater for a wide range of abilities and learning styles, achieving strong results at GCSE. At Portland Place School we focus on best preparing our students for any path they wish to take, inclusive of A-level courses, BTEC, Foundation courses and apprenticeships.
More importantly, our students come to school with a smile and are proud to be part of the Portland Place School community. ...Read more

Special Education Needs
Pupils with special needs come from a wide range of backgrounds and their needs are usually catered for within their own classes. Extra support is provided by teachers on an indivdual basis where required. These sessions are normally timetabled to coincide with one of the daily sports sessions. Pupils' needs are managed by the school's Manager of Special Educational Needs. Pupils who need short term support in EAL attend small groups (4-6 pupils) during one of the daily PE slots or second modern language class. 10-09
