Latymer Upper School is a public school (now co-educational) in Hammersmith, London, England, between King Street and the River Thames. It derives from a charity school, part of the same Latymer Foundation, founded in 1624 by the English merchant Edward Latymer. There is a junior school on site, but with approximately 1,200 pupils, most students are admitted to the Upper School through examination and interview at the age of eleven, with some entering at 16. The school's academic results place it among the top schools nationally, and it has historically accepted under 10% of applicants.[a]

Having opened on its King Street site in 1895, the school spent a period of time in the mid-20th century as a direct grant grammar school, before becoming independent with the system's abolition in the 1970s. Remaining single-sex until 1996, when Sixth Form admissions were opened to girls, the school transitioned to full co-education in the first decade of the 21st century.

Latymer's alumni include members of both Houses of Parliament, winners of Olympic medals, actors, musicians, and many figures in the arts and sciences.

History[edit]

Foundation[edit]

Latymer Upper School has its origins in the will of Edward Latymer, a wealthy lawyer and Puritan, who left part of his wealth for the clothing and education of "eight poore boyes" from Hammersmith.[1] This was intended "to keep them from idle and vagrant courses, and also to instruct them in some part of God's true religion".[5] He owned Butterwick Manor and the land round about in Hammersmith. Most of Butterwick Manor House was demolished in 1836, except for one wing of the building, Bradmore House. This had been converted into a separate house in 1736; it survives[b] on Queen Caroline Street, Hammersmith.[7]

Latymer split his Butterwick Manor estate three ways, allocating 6 acres[c] of land to provide charity for the poor of St Dunstan-in-the-West in the City of London; 8½ acres for what became The Latymer School in Edmonton; and 28½ acres for the Latymer Foundation at Hammersmith.[8]

From Fulham to Hammersmith[edit]

In 1628, a school, partially funded by the estate of Dr. Thomas Edwards, who had died c. 1618, was built for the Latymer boys in the churchyard in Fulham. In 1648, the school moved to a new building, paid for by a Mr. Bull and a Mr. Palmer, in Hammersmith. This served until around 1657, when the Latymer Charity School for the parish was founded in the churchyard of St Paul's, Hammersmith. At around the same time, and certainly before 1689, a girls' school was created, perhaps in the same building.[1]

The charity school was replaced in 1755 with a two-storey building, the ground floor for 25 girls, the first floor for 20 boys, later reduced on grounds of cost to 15 girls and 15 boys. The school was expanded in 1819 by adding two further classrooms, serving a total of 50 girls and 80 boys. Demand for the girls' school proved insufficient, and it was merged into the parish school; the boys' school increased to 100 pupils, filling the available space.[1][9] In 1863, the boys' school moved to a new and larger building, with space for 125 pupils, between King Street East (now Hammersmith Road) and Great Church Lane, a little to the east of Hammersmith Broadway.[1]

Latymer Upper School, King Street[edit]

In 1878 it was agreed to build a new school in Hammersmith, with three of the governors to be appointed by the local borough council, and two by the London School Board.[11] The new Latymer Upper School buildings, running southwards from King Street towards the River Thames, were opened by the Bishop of London in 1895. The old buildings were used for Latymer Lower School, an "elementary" or primary school[1] The school taught boys aged up to 16; the fees were £5,[d] and boys from local schools could apply for scholarships.[11] The range of subjects taught included practical mechanics and experimental chemistry.[11] The school quickly grew to 300 pupils by 1880. The school was extended with five extra classrooms, a workshop, and laboratories in 1901, allowing the total number of pupils to rise to 450.[1]

The school was further enlarged in 1930 by extending the main building to the south. The buildings at the Weltje Road and King Street corner were purchased and adapted, with the addition of a biology laboratory and the arrangement of a top floor room as a chapel; this was consecrated in 1938.[1] The school grew substantially in 1951 to over 1000 boys with the acquisition of Rivercourt House, beside the River Thames, extending the Latymer site southwards.[1] In 1957, the Industrial Fund for the Advancement of Science in Schools provided a grant which enabled the school to add new physics laboratories, completed in 1961. The school had grown to 1,150 by 1964.[1]

In 1945, Latymer became a direct grant grammar school, meaning that it took both state-funded and fee-paying pupils. At the same time, its head joined the Headmasters' Conference.[1][13] The Direct Grant system was abolished in 1976, removing government funding,[14][15] Latymer became a public school.[3][16] and the school switched to the Assisted Places Scheme, retaining a mix of partly or wholly funded places and fee-paying pupils.[17] From 2004, fundraising enabled an increasing number of bursaries to be provided, independently of government.[14]

In 1996, the Sixth Form became co-educational, despite the initial reluctance of some governors and senior staff.[18] In 2004, the main school started on the same path, with the introduction of girls into Year 7; as those pupils moved up the school, it became fully co-educational by 2008.[19] In 2018, the school won three Times Educational Supplement awards, for "Independent School of the Year", "Independent-State School Partnerships", and "Senior School of the Year".[20] Each year, the school gathers in the nearby church of St Paul's, Hammersmith to celebrate "Founder's Day" in honour of Edward Latymer.[3][21]

Fees[edit]

Tuition for 2020 was £21,000 per year, plus other mandatory and optional fees.[22]

Latymer offers a bursary programme, with 176 pupils on means-tested bursaries.[23][24] For families with incomes unable to pay the fees, Latymer Upper is free.[25] The school has a substantial fund from donations ring-fenced to fund bursaries; in 2017–18 it had a total income of £34.7 million, with a surplus over expenditure of £8.2 million. Of that surplus, £7.9 million was from ring-fenced donations for bursaries; the school added £2.5 million to that to pay for bursaries during that tax year.[26][27]

Activities[edit]

There are over 140 clubs and societies at Latymer, including the J. S. Mill, Literary and Latymer Societies and clubs for bridge, chess, debating, philosophy and photography. The Drama Society holds several productions each year.[28] The school participates in the Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme.[29] The school offers all students a trip every year in 'Activities Week'. Trips range from outward bound camping, mountain walking, and sailing, to the cultural with visits to Barcelona, Paris, and Venice; local activities have included visiting London art galleries, producing a pantomime, and making a documentary film.[30]

The Latymer Upper School Boat Club taught Andy Holmes, Olympic gold medal rower (1984 Games and 1988 Games),[31][32] and the cox Henry Fieldman, Olympic bronze medal rower (2020 Games).[33] The Boat Club has gone on to win Henley Royal Regatta, most recently with the win of the Diamond Jubilee Challenge Cup in 2019.[34][35]

Facilities[edit]

Latymer Performing Arts Centre

The Latymer Theatre and Arts Centre, opened in 2000, includes a 300-seat galleried box theatre named the Edward Latymer Theatre and an art gallery.[36] The Latymer Performing Arts Centre, completed in 2009, contains drama studios, rehearsal rooms and a 150-seat recital hall.[37] The Science and Library building, opened in 2010, includes labs for the three sciences and a library with seating for more than 200 pupils which occupies a floor at the base. Van Heyningen and Haward Architects were responsible for constructing these four buildings.[38]

The Sports Centre was opened in March 2016; it has a six-lane swimming pool, basketball hoops, badminton markings, cricket nets, a fitness suite, and a rock climbing wall, and serves as an area for pupils to take their examinations.[39]

The school's playing fields are about a mile and a half away, on Wood Lane. The playing fields are used for training by the England Rugby Team.[40][41]

Coat of arms[edit]

The school for many years used the armorial bearings of the founder, Edward Latymer. This included his motto, Latin: Paulatim ergo certe ("Slowly therefore surely"). The motto puns on his surname, using an "i" as Latin lacks the letter "y".[42] In 2004 the school badge was simplified, dropping the motto, and retaining only the chevron on a blue field, with a single crosslet symbol.[43] The crest was changed again to a form more like the original one in September 2020.[42]

Academic performance[edit]

Latymer Upper School is rated by the Tatler Schools Guide as one of the highest academically performing schools in the UK.[44] The school's own on-site prep pupils enter the Upper School automatically at the end of Year 6; pupils from other schools sit an examination in English and mathematics.[45] There were 33 Oxbridge places in 2017, and several pupils went to US universities such as Brown, Columbia, Dartmouth, Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, Pennsylvania and Yale.[46] GCSE and A-Level summaries over five years are summarised in the table.[47]
