At the end of 2020, we started our search for three new Ambassador Schools to help support us in our mission to offer hands-on learning experiences outside the classroom to schools across the UK. After a wealth of impressive applications, we are happy to announce our Ambassador Schools for the 2021-2022 period!
Addison Primary are located just down the road from KidZania London in Hammersmith. The primary school pride themselves in working towards their key values; respect, responsibility, perseverance, honesty and friendship which perfectly align with KidZania’s ethos in educating children. We can’t wait to welcome them to our city soon!

Based in Luton, Hillborough Junior school helps their children ‘aspire to excellence’ and provide an OFSTED rated Outstanding provision for its pupils. Their curriculum five Hillborough Habits include persistence, imagination, collaboration, inquisitiveness and discipline, a perfect match for KidZania London. We can’t wait to welcome the children to help them explore their PSHE topics of careers, jobs and managing money!

Slightly further afield in Broadstairs, Kent, Upton Junior school really impressed us with their video application, featuring many of their own pupils. Their motto ‘One childhood, one chance’, sums up perfectly how we at KidZania approach blending learning and reality during visits. We’ve heard word that the children are super excited to be an Ambassador School and we can’t wait to welcome them to KidZania as soon as possible.

As part of their role as a KidZania Ambassador school, each of the three schools will be able to visit KidZania when we reopen, obtain exclusive discounts for their friends and family to visit, exclusive previews of new educational offerings and a years subscription to both Cocoa Girl and Cocoa Boy Magazine. In exchange, KidZania looks forward to working closely with the schools to help improve their educational offering, obtain testimonials and feedback and insight from pupils and teachers alike.
