What the school inspection says

“Latymer School provides pupils with high-quality education. Pupils are supported to aim high and achieve well academically in most subjects ... Pupils enjoy school life and play an active role. They take full advantage of the extensive range of societies and clubs on offer. These include plentiful opportunities to develop their musical and sporting talents as well as interests such as chess and engineering. Parents and carers are highly supportive of the school ... [Pupils] have rich opportunities to debate, including on matters such as sexuality, race, religion and climate change. Pupils are proud to take on leadership responsibilities, including the recent Latymer Equalities Action Project.”

*Ofsted no longer makes an overall effectiveness judgment in inspections of state-funded schools. A five-point grading scale, including a new “exceptional” grade was introduced in November 2025.
