About The Godolphin and Latymer School

About the School

Conveniently situated a short walk from Hammersmith Broadway in west London, Godolphin and Latymer is one of the UK’s leading independent secondary schools. It is an academically selective, girls’ day school with about 800 pupils aged 11-18. Currently 10% of students are in receipt of a means-tested bursary, and widening access to the school is an important objective for us.

The school was founded in 1905, using the buildings of a former boys’ boarding school which had closed a few years earlier. Historic buildings – including a converted church – sit side-by-side with modern facilities interconnected by glass atriums, tranquil gardens and courtyards. The school’s association with the Godolphin family means that our alumnae are called Old Dolphins and the school motto in Cornish, ‘Francha Leale Toge’: free and loyal art thou.

Excellent, research-informed teaching supports our students to achieve outstanding exam results which consistently place the school amongst the best nationally. In the Sixth Form our students have the choice of studying A Levels or the International Baccalaureate diploma. We create a learning environment that promotes analytical skills, collaboration, adaptability, creative thinking and problem-solving; all mindsets that our students will need in abundance in their future careers.

Pastoral care provides personalised support for each individual girl and there is an overarching philosophy of building resilience, self-confidence and selfagency in our students. It is our aim that girls are happy within themselves and well prepared for the promise that their futures hold.

Pupils learn about the importance of equality, sustainability, diversity and inclusion and we encourage pupils to make a difference in the wider community through a range of volunteering opportunities and social impact projects. Our Bridge outreach programme is run by staff, and supported by Sixth Formers, and provides academic enrichment for boys and girls from families who wouldn’t normally consider sending their children to independent schools.

The school enjoys individual and team sporting success with a full fixtures list throughout the year and opportunities for all ages and abilities. Our astro-pitches, courts and fabulous Sports Centre are all on-site and our pupils row on the Thames, a short walk away. We have an excellent reputation for the creative and performing arts with regular performances, concerts and exhibitions.

Our co-curricular programme is full and varied and students develop their individual interests and passions at over 90 weekly clubs and societies.

Every year we have an extensive programme of trips in the UK and overseas and many of our pupils take part in the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme. The extracurricular programme is enthusiastically supported by both teaching and non-teaching staff. We also encourage students to develop their leadership skills through student-led committees and to take on positions of responsibility, particularly in the Sixth Form.
