Queen's Gate School is an independent day school for girls aged 4 to 18, located in South Kensington, London. Occupying five Victorian terrace houses near the capital’s major museums, the school provides an urban learning environment that utilises local landmarks as an extended classroom. Founded in 1891 by Eleanor Beatrice Wyatt, the school emphasises individuality within a supportive atmosphere and is notable for its lack of a prescribed uniform. The broad academic curriculum is enhanced by the regular use of nearby facilities, including the Royal Albert Hall and Imperial College.

Selectivity:
Academic
Queen's Gate School operates a selective admissions process. For entry into the Junior School at 4+, children participate in classroom-based activities while their parents attend an interview. At the 11+ entry point, candidates sit the London 11+ Consortium's online assessment, which covers English, Mathematics, and reasoning skills, followed by an interview. For other entry points, students are typically assessed in English and Mathematics to ensure they can fully access the school's academic curriculum. A reference from the applicant's current school is also a standard requirement for Senior School entry.
