The Latymer Foundation

The Latymer Foundation was established in 1624 ‘to clothe and educate eight poore boyes’ in Hammersmith. It remains true to the vision of its founder Edward Latymer to this day, offering a first class education to academically able students from all walks of life.

Bursaries

One of the main purposes of the Foundation is to ensure that any child is able to access a Latymer education regardless of their financial circumstances. The Latymer Foundation funds access to a Latymer education for those who qualify for a place at the Upper School or the Prep, but whose family cannot afford to pay the fees. The Inspiring Minds campaign, which aims to raise £40 million by 2024, will help to fund bursaries for as many as one in four of our pupils.
