Having been brought up in the borough – going to school here and later spending seven years working in a school – I know we have some of the most dedicated, caring and inspirational teachers and school staff in the country. In striving to attain impressive standards, while also supporting the well-being and development of pupils, they exemplify everything that is great about education. We have a broad range of schools, offering a comprehensive range of opportunities and our secondary school pupils make above national average progress. Competition for places is high, but I’m confident that there is a local secondary in Hammersmith & Fulham that can inspire your child to achieve their best while enjoying a vibrant school community. My strong advice is that you visit as many schools as you can, as every secondary school has something different to offer your family. Open evenings and mornings give you a valuable opportunity to get a feel for the school and meet the headteacher, staff and current students. Dates and times of the open evenings and mornings for each school are in this brochure and online. I really hope you find the information about the borough’s schools, and the advice on how to apply, helpful and wish you all the best in making your decision.

  • 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.
