Description:
Founded in 1905 as a
non-denominational school, it was
government funded between 1920-1976
but reverted to full independence in
1977. The school stands on a 4-acre
site in Hammersmith, West London.
Its own playing fields are attached,
including an all-weather surface for
hockey and tennis. The original
Victorian building (built as a boys’
boarding school, Godolphin School)
has had several additions to it – a
gym, laboratories, art studios,
lecture room etc. There is a
sixth-form centre and rooms for
pottery and technology; most
recently, the adjacent grade 2
listed church has been converted
into a performing arts building,
with an 800-seat theatre. Facilities
are now excellent. A well-run and
academically high-powered school
which gets excellent examination
results and sends many pupils on to
Oxbridge. The International
Baccalaureate is offered in the
sixth form, as an alternative to AS
and A-levels. It is very strong
indeed in music, drama and art;
there is a massive commitment among
the pupils. An excellent record in
games and sports (several county
hockey representatives) and a wide
range is on offer. There is a strong
relationship between staff and
parents, including two parent
governors.
