Godolphin and Latymer School is an independent day school for girls aged 11 to 18, situated in Hammersmith, West London. Established in 1861 as a boys’ school, it was reconstituted in 1905 with support from the Latymer Foundation. The campus features Victorian architecture alongside contemporary facilities, notably the Bishop Centre for performing arts, housed in a converted church designed by William Butterfield. Students in the Sixth Form choose between A Levels and the International Baccalaureate Diploma. The school’s ethos encourages intellectual curiosity, independent thought, and a commitment to social responsibility.
