Independent co-ed senior school in Hammersmith and Fulham for ages 11–18. Selective entry.
- Families seeking a senior school for ages 11–18, with thinking already on 11+ or 13+ entry.
- Families who prefer a co-educational setting over single-sex.
- Children who can demonstrate strong academics at entry assessment — this is a selective school.
