The Best Education London Has to Offer A FINE START YOUR GUIDE TO THE BEST SCHOOLS AND UNIVERSITIES IN LONDON THE BEST EDUCATION LONDON HAS TO OFFER Nurseries, schools and universities are not in short supply in Chelsea and Fulham. With London being recognised as a leading global centre for higher education, St George developments in West London have easy access to the local area’s best schools and the City’s many prestigious universities, providing a sound investment for children and the future. At primary level, schools like Thomas’s Battersea and Kensington Prep School offer children a well‑rounded education with Ofsted ratings of outstanding and excellent. Thomas’s Battersea’s most recent claim to fame is the arrival of Prince George as a student and with exceptional teaching staff and extensive facilities Thomas’s has very quickly become a popular school for boys and girls aged between 4‑13. Children tend to go on to equally prestigious schools like Eton, Harrow and Westminster. The range of local secondary schools is also impressive. There’s Godolphin & Latymer – a school praised as much for the niceness of their pupils as for their academic ability. St. Paul’s Girls’ School, meanwhile, is renowned for its musical department and academically, children perform highly with, on average, half the class feeding into Oxford and Cambridge and some of London’s world renowned universities such as King’s College and London School of Economics. Chelsea Creek is not only a stunning place to live, but offers a complete lifestyle and a way into some of the best education London has to offer. 1 PREP & Primary Schools PAGE 06 Secondary Schools PAGE 10 Universities PAGE 14 2 3 OUTSTANDING EDUCATION SHOREDITCH REGENT’S From Chelsea Creek you have PARK CLERKENWELL 03 easy access to the local area’s best schools and London’s finest universities PADDINGTON FITZROVIA 05 CITY OF WHITE CITY NOTTING HILL SOHO LONDON 01 MAYFAIR HYDE PARK 02 To University of West London GREEN ST JAMES’S HOLLAND PARK SOUTHWARK PARK PARK SHEPHERD’S BUSH 06 04 WESTMINSTER KENSINGTON RAVENSCOURT KNIGHTSBRIDGE 05 PARK 04 04 03 HAMMERSMITH PIMLICO CHISWICK 01 08 CHELSEA 07 PREP & PRIMARY SECONDARY SCHOOLS 06 SCHOOLS 01 St Paul’s School 01 Riverside Nursery BATTERSEA NINE 02 Lady Margaret School PARK ELMS 02 Thomas’s Fulham FULHAM 03 09 Emanuel School BARNES 10 03 Eaton Square School 04 St Paul’s Girls’ School 04 Westminster Cathedral 02 05 05 The Godolphin & Latymer School BARNES 07 Choir School COMMON 06 Harris Westminster 05 Thomas’s Battersea 07 The London Oratory School 06 The London Oratory School 07 L’École de Battersea UNIVERSITIES 02 08 Fulham Prep School CLAPHAM 01 King’s College London PUTNEY BATTERSEA 09 01 Newton Preparatory School 02 University of West London 10 Kensington Prep School 03 University College London 04 Imperial College London CLAPHAM COMMON 05 LSE 03 4 5 PREP & PRIMARY RIVERSIDE NURSERY THOMAS’S FULHAM EATON SQUARE SCHOOL WESTMINSTER CATHEDRAL CHOIR SCHOOL 01 Battersea Reach, Ensign House, 02 03 79 Eccleston Square, Hugon Road, SW6 3ES Juniper Drive, Wandsworth London SW1V 1PP 04 Ambrosden Avenue, SW1P 1QH – Boys and girls SW18 1TA – Ages: 4 ‑ 13 – Boys and girls – Boys – Boys and girls – Term fees: £7,300 – Ages: 4 ‑ 13 – Ages: 4 ‑ 13 – Ages: 3 months - 5 years – Registration: 1st September three years before – Term fees: £8,000 – Term fees: £5,600; boarding (choristers only) – Term fees: Disclosed upon application entry, when children are aged between one – Registration: Occurs at any stage prior to the £3,362 – Ofsted rating (2016): Outstanding and two years old assessment procedures taking place at the – Registration: Boys may be registered at any – Ofsted rating (2018): Outstanding age of three years, the year prior to entry time from birth.

  • Lady Margaret School
    Lady Margaret School Project Overview Lady Margaret School, based in Parsons Green, south west London, is a successful and popular secondary school for girls. In order to meet an increasing demand for places, the school requires extra facilities and creative solutions to increase its Year 7 entry from a three to four class intake. The school was keen to bring us on board to work with them as we had successfully delivered their multi purpose 6th form centre in 2010. During this project, we were mindful of the school and its community’s needs, ensuring minimum disruption while working in a live environment which included Grade II listed buildings. Educational Development With every opportunity to expand comes the opportunity to enhance. By creating new facilities above the existing classrooms, we are able to infill and optimise the use of space in-between buildings. This creates the opportunity for extra classrooms as well as open-plan study areas and flexible learning spaces. The programme will also improve the social spaces, circulation and accessibility across the school, as well as enlarging and enhancing its dining facilities for students. Working in a Live Environment Working in any educational institute poses considerable challenges. At Lady Margaret School, safety is of paramount importance throughout the project. A phased approach has been undertaken to ensure minimal disruption possible. In particular, main constructing builds, such as the infilling between the existing buildings, take place during school holidays. We recognise in school communities that site access is particularly sensitive. We have ensured minimal disruption to the local area by scheduling deliveries before and after the school day.

    Westminster Abbey A Service to celebrate the Centenary of Lady Margaret School Tuesday 17 th October 2017 Noon The hands of Lady Margaret Beaufort’s effigy on her tomb; the work of Pietro Torrigiano (1472 –1528). ‘Every one that knew her loved her, and everything that she said or did became her.’ St John Fisher (1469–1535) HISTORICAL NOTE Lady Margaret School has its origins in Whitelands College School, founded in 1842. In 1917, the original school was threatened with closure, but due to the strenuous efforts of Enid Moberly Bell, her friends, and the staff of the school, a substantial number of the pupils were ‘rescued’ and Lady Margaret School came into being in September of that same year. Miss Moberley Bell remained Headteacher for the next thirty years. The school takes its name from Lady Margaret Beaufort, Countess of Richmond and Derby (1443–1509) the mother of Henry VII, whence the choice of the Tudor Rose as the school’s emblem. Lady Margaret Beaufort was founder of St John’s and Christ’s Colleges, Cambridge. Lady Margaret Hall, the first women’s college at Oxford University, is also named after her. She is buried here in Westminster Abbey. The first school building was Belfield House, Parsons Green, the oldest of the three houses which form part of the present school. In 1937, a second house was purchased, but before long war broke out and the school was evacuated to Midhurst in Sussex. The school re-opened in 1943 and in 1947 became a two-form entry grammar school under the leadership of Florence Elsie Marshall (1947–71).

  • Times Parent Power Schools Guide 2020
    Times Parent Power Schools Guide 2020 Best Secondary Schools in London London’s grip on the very top of the Parent Power rankings for both state and independent schools has been loosened in the past 12 months. This time last year, the capital had 10 of the top 20 schools in the independent sector and nine of the top 20 state schools — figures that have declined this year to eight and five respectively. The overall number of London schools in both rankings has remained broadly the same, however, (down by just three in both the state and independent sectors) while the southeast region is dominant. The capital encompasses the best and worst of education. London primaries are hugely disproportionately represented in our primary school rankings, published last week, with 181 junior schools in the capital among the top 500. However, too many of the children from these schools go on to get lost in underachieving secondaries that are a million miles — or rather several hundred A*, A and B grades — away from the pages of Parent Power. There is cause for some optimism, however, as recent initiatives begin to bear fruit. New free schools, such as Harris Westminster Sixth Form, are helping to change the educational landscape. Harris Westminster is a partnership between Westminster School, one of the country’s most prestigious independents, and the Harris Federation, which has built up a network of 49 primary and secondary schools across the capital over the past 25 years, sponsored by Lord Harris, who built up the Carpetright empire. Harris Westminster sits fourth in our new ranking of sixth-form colleges, with 41% of students gaining at least AAB in two or more facilitating subjects — those that keep most options open at university, including, maths, English, the sciences, languages, history and geography.

It is now a Catholic Academy school for pupils between the ages of 7 and 18 and remains in the trusteeship of the Oratorians. Currently, there are 1367 pupils on roll. Since its foundation, the School has shared its religious and cultural identity with the Fathers of the London Oratory Church, which has its own very distinctive ethos and tradition of formal church worship and traditional Catholic music and culture, with an emphasis on the Latin liturgical tradition and its music, deriving from the first Oratory which was founded in 16th Century Rome. The School’s partnership with the Oratory Church is evident in the day-to-day life of the School and in its education and philosophy, its values and its expectations, strengthened through the chaplaincy work and regular contact with the Church. Parents are expected to be committed to and give their wholehearted support to Catholic education and to the distinctive religious and cultural traditions and ethos of the School. The School’s aim is to assist Catholic parents in fulfilling their obligations to educate their children in accordance with the principles and teachings of the Church and to do so within an environment that encourages and supports the spiritual, physical, moral and intellectual development of the child and help him to grow towards full Christian maturity; and to provide a wide and rich range of educational and cultural experiences which will encourage children to discover and develop their potential to its maximum and to strive for high standards of excellence in all activities.
