About Lady Margaret School
Lady Margaret School is a Church of England academy for girls aged 11-18 situated on Parsons Green in West London. Established in September 1917, there are currently 780 girls on roll, of whom 182 are in the Sixth Form. It is an outstandingly successful school in welcoming girls of all academic abilities and ensuring that they achieve their full potential.

In 2024, 93% of our girls attained GCSE English and Mathematics at grades 9-4.
