Westminster School family

Westminster School is an ancient independent boarding and day school located in the urban setting of Central London, within the precincts of Westminster Abbey. Its origins can be traced to a charity school established by Benedictine monks in the early 14th century, and it was refounded by Elizabeth I in 1560. The school claims to foster academic excellence, scholarship, and open-minded inquiry. It offers day and boarding places for boys aged 13-18 and is co-educational for girls in the Sixth Form from 16-18. The school utilizes playing fields at Vincent Square a short distance away for sports.

Westminster Under School is an independent preparatory school for boys aged 7 to 13, established in 1943. Situated in central London at 27 Vincent Square, it overlooks the Westminster School playing fields. The school claims to focus on a liberal education, fostering a love of knowledge, inquisitiveness, and a desire to serve others. It also aims to develop compassionate and intellectually enriched pupils. The school is known for its strengths in music, sports, drama, chess, and Latin, with choristers often serving St Margaret's Church in Westminster Abbey.
