About this program
Dallington School is an independent, progressive primary school founded in 1978 by Mogg Hercules MBE in the heart of London. The school operates as a family-owned "village school" offering an alternative to traditional education, with a philosophy centered on celebrating childhood and unhurried learning. The school's mission is to nurture curious, creative, confident, kind and enthusiastic lifelong learners in an informal, holistic, and highly creative environment. What makes Dallington unique is its truly independent status and non-selective admissions policy—there are no entrance exams or assessments required. The school champions independence and natural progression as an antidote to the increasingly frenetic educational world, allowing children to have a voice, make mistakes, question and challenge. Located in north London, the school serves children ages 3 to 11, helping them become self-aware global citizens while preparing them for their onward journey to secondary education.
