School summary

Latymer Prep School is one of the smaller independent settings in Hammersmith and Fulham, with around 174 pupils giving it an intimate scale where children are easily known by staff. The school is mixed and non-denominational, and does not offer boarding. It is led by Head Andrea Rutterford and inspected by the ISI. For families seeking a close-knit London prep with a clear pathway to senior school entry, its size is likely to be a defining attraction.

Mobile phone policy

Mobile phones are not to be used in certain spaces around the school at any time of day. Lower and middle school pupils use Yondr pouches which they must bring to school every morning. Unlocking stations are at school entrance and exit points and phones must remain locked in Yondr pouches until the end of the school day. For sixth form students, phones are to be used only at break times and in limited spaces around the school (common room, library, atrium and piazza).

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.

Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.

A small, central London prep where the modest roll allows pupils to be known as individuals.

That’s where Passmate comes in. Tutoring is the most effective thing in a child’s preparation - a well-tutored child can outperform the vast majority of their peers. Passmate works alongside your tutor, not instead of them: it learns how your child thinks, finds the gaps, and shows the tutor exactly where to spend each session - so the limited time you have lands on what actually decides a place.

Works alongside your child’s tutor - not instead of them.
