Coombe Girls' School

Incredibly over-subscribed with around 900 applicants for 210 places in Year 7 with very little movement in other years. Located in a residential area with plenty of greenery, this national teaching school was converted into an academy in 2012. Headteacher, Mrs Walls has worked hard at making the school one of the top in SW London. Instilling confidence in girls is one of the key elements. Academically, the school excels as it does in sport and the arts. In 2016, 88% of students achieved 5 GCSEs at A*-C, including English & maths. At A levels, 75% achieved A*-C with many going to top universities.
