Our size is our superpower.
As a truly independent school, Babington is small enough to know and celebrate every child, yet big enough to unlock their potential, we provide a bespoke approach to education for pupils aged 3 to 16.
Within our close-knit community, every child is recognised as an individual — encouraged to grow in confidence, build meaningful friendships and discover their unique strengths.
Guided by our values, we inspire imagination, challenge thinking and nurture each child’s unique potential. We develop confident, curious and compassionate young people with the courage to embrace opportunities, discover their individuality and become the very best version of themselves.
Perfectly situated in the heart of Chislehurst
We are perfectly situated in the heart of Chislehurst being only 3 minutes walk from Elmstead Woods Station and within easy reach of Central London

We were delighted to welcome Little City for a recent visit, our Early Years children had so much fun exploring a world of imaginative role play!
From building and hairdressing to playing in the launderette and caring for animals as vets, there was something exciting around every corner! Our little Babingtonians were busy learning, exploring, communicating and, most importantly, having lots of fun along the way.
A huge thank you to Little City for such a fantastic experience — lots of fun was had by all! There were plenty of smiles, lots of creativity and some very busy little imaginations!

We’re delighted to have broadened our curriculum this year with the introduction of Dance for pupils in Years 5–8.
Our new Dance curriculum is built around three key principles: Create. Perform. Appreciate. Through these strands, pupils will develop their fitness, dance technique, performance and choreography skills, while also broadening their knowledge and appreciation of dance as an art form.
Our Year 6 pupils have already been getting into the rhythm and thoroughly enjoyed their first Dance lesson!
We’re looking forward to seeing our pupils develop their confidence, creativity and skills as they explore this exciting new area of the curriculum.
