The Latymer Foundation at Hammersmith 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.
The Inspiring Minds campaign is seeking to raise at least £40 million by the 400th anniversary of the Foundation in 2024, in order to provide funding for means-tested bursaries for as many as 1 in 4 of our pupils; thereby offering a lifetransforming Latymer education to more local children. This is the first stage on our journey towards a “need-blind” admissions process, so that any child with academic potential can come to our School, regardless of their family’s financial status. Significantly increasing our endowment for bursaries will ensure we have funding for future generations of Latymerians to come.
Latymer Upper and Latymer Prep Schools are academically selective, independent, coeducational schools in West London. Although now fully fee-paying, the Schools’ ethos of social inclusivity remains as true today as it did nearly 400 years ago when the Latymer Foundation was established by Edward Latymer “to clothe and educate eight poore boyes” in Hammersmith. His vision remains firmly at the heart of the School and the Latymer of today consists of a vibrant student body of 1,400 girls and boys from all walks of life.
As I near the end of my time at Latymer, I find myself thinking back on the past seven years I’ve spent here. Each fond memory, interesting fact, or meaningful friendship that I have come away with, the gratitude that I feel for my bursary, means I appreciate them all the more. I am so thankful that I can attend this school; the experiences I’ve accumulated at Latymer have inevitably shaped me into the person I am today – more confident, aware and empathetic than my eleven-year-old self.”
This year has seen a very welcome return to the busy programme of events and activity which make this School and our community so unique. My thanks to the Foundation team who have worked tirelessly to bring back a series of fun and engaging events that have enabled us to come back together for some much-needed laughter after two years of pandemic. From ‘Latymer Laughs’ to the Staff Panto ‘Aladdin’, festive wreath making and the stunning Spring Gala, each event has not only raised money for our bursaries appeal, it has highlighted the very best of what our community is. None of this would be possible without the extraordinary support of our alumni, staff, students and parents – former and current – who give their time and talents to supporting our mission, for which I am forever grateful.
This year has not just been about reunions and renewal, it has also been full of Latymer ‘firsts’. The new year brought the announcement of the first current student ever to be included in the New Years’ Honours List. Nina, our School Vice Captain was recognised with a British Empire Medal for her extraordinary intergenerational initiative, Community Senior Letters. Nina’s incredible year continued when she got accepted to UPenn where she will start in September. She’s not the only Latymerian heading overseas, we’ve had a record-breaking number of offers – 80 – from International universities this year as well as students being accepted onto some of the most prestigious scholarship programmes in the world. Our bursary students are well represented in this group, with many securing full scholarships to study both abroad as well as in the UK with Kitty achieving a scholarship offer from the Royal Academy of Music. Kitty is through to the third round of the BBC Young Musician of the Year competition. Then there is Fila, who joined us on a full bursary as well as music and art scholarships in Sixth Form and discovered a love of engineering whilst she’s been with us. She’s been offered a place at the Dyson Institute of Engineering & Technology. Read Fila’s story on p. 9.
The return to a full extra-curricular programme has seen our students excelling on the pitch and in the water. For the first time a Latymer hockey team reached the U14 National Hockey Finals and our U13 girls football team reached the semi-finals of the English Schools’ Football Association National Cup! In rowing our J16 VIII won a silver medal at the National Schools Regatta and Year 11 student Alec was invited to
GB Spring trials and ranked in the top 10 U19s in the country. Our Lower School swimmers have also done exceptionally well; the girls team made it to the national final of the schools relays and the mixed team was runner up in the London Swimming League. Balthazar is part of the GB Para-Swimming team and we’ve also had the first Latymerian selected for the Team GB climbing team!
I cherish the buzz and the energy that has returned to our piazza this year. I think back to the fresh faced Y7s who started in September; our eager Prep pupils selling their ‘Grow a Fiver’ goodies; the rodeo bull at the Christmas Fair (a triumph thanks to our amazing Parents’ Gild), and the talented musicians performing at numerous events, culminating in the ‘Prom in the Piazza’ at the end of Summer term, the sheer variety of events speaks to the diversity and the gifted individuals that make up our community. A diversity that has been enriched by the welcoming of Ukrainian children and their families escaping the conflict at home. It reignites my resolve to deliver our mission to provide an outstanding education for all academically able children, no matter their financial means and I thank each and every one of you for supporting us in this ambition.
Best regards

Donations of £18m to Latymer’s endowment mean that some 20% of bursaries are funded in perpetuity; the remaining £21m has been allocated to provide bursaries for current pupils.
300 bursary pupils
To be able to offer bursaries to 1 in 4 of our pupils is the first stage of the journey towards our dream of need-blind admissions to Latymer. This will require new bursaries to continue to be funded each year, through the generosity of our wonderful donors. Our long-term aspiration is to ensure any child with academic potential can come to Latymer, irrespective of their family’s financial status. We are hopeful that the strong support from the Latymer community will continue and enable us to reach our goal.
Making a positive contribution to our community is a key part of the Latymer ethos. This year, 190 students in Year 12 offered their time to over 50 organisations and initiatives, ranging from primary schools and youth clubs, to charities working with vulnerable adults and families. By nurturing the value of community social responsibility, we support our students to become rounded and grounded members of society. As our partner organisations continue to ease their Covid-19 restrictions, we hope to offer a wider variety of placements and make an even greater community impact in 2022/23.
In light of the impact of social isolation on young people during the pandemic, Year 12 student Nina created ‘Write Bright’ – a competition for 15-18 year olds at Latymer and our partner schools, for the purpose of sharing experiences of loneliness and how this was overcome during lockdown. The London Review Bookshop and the Latymer library generously donated prizes, while the winning entrant received a one-to-one skills development session with Latymerian Dan Jude (2003) (Global Creative Lead for Google and YouTube). Nina received 18 submissions in total which, in the words of one participant, allowed for the expression of ‘some of the feelings most of us felt during this difficult time.’
Recognising the need to support older generations during the pandemic, Year 13 student Nina set up Community Senior Letters. This non-profit project matched school students with residents in care homes via letter writing, as a means to promote connections and ease feelings of isolation. Nina felt that the project would not only benefit the residents, but also provide students with the opportunity to develop valuable skills, including kindness and empathy. Over 250 care homes and more than 250 schools, both in the UK and internationally, joined the initiative, writing hundreds of thousands of letters. In recognition of her efforts, Nina was awarded a British Empire Medal (BEM) in the 2022 New Year Honours List for a ‘hands-on’ service to the local community. Nina and fellow student Tara (also in Year 13) have since compiled several letters into a book, ‘The Heart of our Community’, which has been distributed to care homes, and Nina’s work also features in Captain Sir Tom Moore’s book ‘One Hundred Reasons to Hope’.
This year, two Classics partnerships were established: KidsDoClassics and the Latymer Classics Society. The founders, Year 12 students Juliette and Bee, aimed to inspire a love for Classics in students at our partner schools through an array of exciting workshops and visiting speakers. With topics including ‘Intertextuality in Roman Poetry’ and ‘Pandora’s Jar’, the projects explored myths, introduced Latin, and encouraged students to take up Classics in their future studies.
With the numbers of bursary students continuing to increase, thanks to our Inspiring Minds campaign, so does the long-term impact of the bursary programme.
In 2021, 76% of Upper Sixth bursary students went to Russell Group universities, 7% to Oxbridge and 4% to international universities.
662 students have benefitted from a bursary since 2004
49 bursary holders joined Latymer Prep or Upper School in September 2021
244 bursary holders are currently studying in the Prep or Upper School
Latymer’s Concert Band and the Cello in the Chamber Orchestra and spearheaded the set design for Latymer’s production of ‘Legally Blonde’. This year she will become the first ever Latymerian to study at the Dyson Institute on a highly competitive Degree Apprenticeship Engineering course.
My bursary honestly meant the world because I definitely would not have this experience of education if I wasn’t here at Latymer. With a bursary I’ve been able to experience loads of things. I’m now going into engineering which is something I don’t think I could see happening if I hadn’t been here. I’ve been inspired to do as well as I can because I know that there’s someone out there who is helping me. I want to give back to them and in the future, if I become a successful person, maybe one day, I can.”
Amir is currently studying Medicine at Cambridge University, having left Latymer in 2018 after 7 years as the beneficiary of a Fynvola Grant Bursary. Currently, Amir is completing a research publication (of which he is the lead author) in collaboration with the Addenbrooke’s Hospital Neurosurgery department, as he aspires to become a neurosurgeon. He has also been appointed a Pharmacology Supervisor at Jesus College which, he says, “is really cool as I get to teach and give back to the lower years”. Amir was the first person in his family to gain A Levels and go to University. During his time at Latymer Amir enjoyed playing football and rugby and participating in music. He credits the school for giving him an inherent love of learning and academia and for encouraging a healthy extracurricular life.
A Latymer bursary is truly lifechanging and that does not solely encompass the 7 years of a Latymer education but extends well beyond that. Being a Latymerian has opened uncountable doors for me from work experiences in top London hospitals to getting advice on University applications. I am in no doubt that the Latymer bursary has played a critical part in shaping the journey that I am on today.
This year, we have welcomed the return of in-person events, with talks and performances ranging from art to comedy and music taking place at King Street and at venues around London.
All money raised has gone to funding more bursaries at Latymer.
Art Historian and Latymer’s longest serving and most treasured teacher, Robert Orme, launched our 2022 Inspiring Minds: Virtually Speaking series with an online evening talk on the humorous side of Chiswick resident and 18th Century portraitist, Johann Zoffany. All proceeds from Robert’s talks go to the bursary in his name, which offers a Sixth Form student from a state school the opportunity to study Art History at Latymer.
Leading historian Taylor Downing (1971) reprised his ever-popular tours of the Imperial War Museum in September and March. Taylor’s in-depth knowledge of the museum’s collection and his historical perspective brought the objects he focused on to life for his audience, giving us new insights into past and present conflicts.
Latymer Laughs was the tonic the Latymer community needed after the pandemic, and sold out in record time. Our performers were all connected to Latymer, whether as parents, alumni or friends. Our compere was Mel Giedroyc who introduced eight diverse acts including Latymer parents Shaparak Khorsandi and the headline act, Bill Bailey. The audience loved his musical and comedic brilliance, roaring their approval.
Taylor Downing in conversation with Anita Lasker-Wallfisch
We were honoured that Anita LaskerWallfisch, one of the few living survivors of Auschwitz, joined Taylor Downing for a ‘‘Virtually Speaking’’ conversation. A talented musician, Anita was the only cellist in the Auschwitz Girls Orchestra. After the war, Anita settled in Britain where she became a founder member of the great English Chamber Orchestra.
In February, three leading art historians discussed the current art world and the impact of the pandemic on their sectors. Our experts, Letizia Treves from the National Gallery, Xavier Bray, Director of the Wallace Collection, and Andrew Fletcher from Christies, who are all Latymer parents, also looked to the future, with increasing digitisation and the rise of NFTs.
After four years, with our last Gala having to be postponed due to the pandemic, we were thrilled to welcome more than 350 guests to the Spring Gala in May. The Sports Hall was transformed into a festival-themed space, with wildflowers, astro turf and a stage adding to the relaxed atmosphere. Over drinks in the piazza, and in the Sports Hall, guests were treated to some memorable musical performances from Latymer students and teachers, including the house band.
‘Back to normal!’ the headlines proclaimed –and this academic year has, indeed, seen life returning to something akin to normality after two long years of on/off lockdown restrictions. But what does the new ‘normal’ look like to our alumni community? Valuable lessons have been learnt during the Covid years, which have served our far-flung community well – in particular how to engage and connect with people online. We have therefore, along with re-opening our doors to our alumni, taken the positives from lockdown and continue to offer online, and in some cases hybrid in-person/zoom, events.
The first of the hybrid ilk, a wonderfully engaging talk with Latymer parent Eddie Marsan, interviewed by alumnus Peter Aspden (1976), was enjoyed by those living far afield, in the comfort of their homes, as well local alumni and parents who experienced the occasion together in the Recital Hall. Other such hybrid events have followed,
but that is not to forget those talks run entirely online, as they were during the pandemic. Former Head Peter Winter’s French literature tutorials are a case in point, with a loyal audience of Latymerians tuning in from Europe, the US, and various parts of the UK. These wonderful evenings spent poring over the poetry shared on our screens would not have been possible any other way, and so (whisper it) this particular lockdown legacy is something for which we are very grateful!
Our regular one, five, and ten-year reunions took place last autumn after a fallow year, and it was wonderful to see so many young alumni catching up with life-long friends and their old teachers. And that stalwart of the alumni social calendar, the Annual Latymerians’ Dinner, returned after a year’s hiatus, and was enjoyed by over 100 guests who were treated to a fascinating talk by our keynote speaker historian and author, Taylor Downing (1971). Not to rest on our laurels, we were delighted to welcome Latymerians from the Class of 1996 onwards, back to King St. at the end of the summer term to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Latymer becoming a co-educational school.
On a smaller scale, and no less important, have been the individual visits by Latymerians who have been unable to travel to Latymer for a while, in part due to flight disruption during the pandemic. We have hundreds of alumni living or working abroad and so we were touched that some from our international community, currently living in Asia and the US, included a trip back at their old school whilst visiting the UK.
The post-lockdown period has also enabled us to resume visits to alumni outside of London. Our On the Road tour has this year included a trip to Cambridge for the traditional Latymerian dinner in the stunning surroundings of Christ’s College, informal drinks in New York for those working and studying in and around the city, and in London (not Milan, sadly) for those studying at Bocconi. We have also entered the hallowed halls of Middle Temple to hold a Law career-networking event with some of our alumni who work in the legal profession as well as budding lawyers from our Sixth Form and those of our partner schools.
We are now setting our sights on the 400th anniversary in two years’ time. The past year has shown us just how adaptable our alumni are and how supportive our close-knit Latymerian community is, both of the School and of one another. All of which bodes well for 2024!
The Bursaries Appeal is our communityled fundraising appeal, and we are proud that, since 2005, thousands of members of our Latymer community have come together to fund five new bursaries each year. Each donation makes a difference, cumulatively raising £3.8m since the Inspiring Minds campaign launched in 2014.
We were delighted to welcome runners from the whole Latymer community – Upper School and Prep students and their families, as well as Latymerians and current staff – to the first 2Bridges Run since the pandemic. We raised more than £5,000 for the Bursaries Appeal and the Prep Bursary Fund.
A team of Lower Sixth students, together with Sam Jolliffe (2021), Latymer Social Media Assistant, took on the gruelling 106km Ultra Challenge around the Isle of Wight coastal path, to raise funds for the Bursaries Appeal. They walked through the night to finish the next afternoon. Generous parents, friends and neighbours came together to raise a fantastic £6,250. Leo wrote that they took on the challenge to help “provide more bursaries and support to underprivileged young people and give them the same access to an amazing education as we have”. We were so impressed by their resilience and perseverance, despite the rigours of the hike.
The Prep Bursary Fund aims to fund one bursary each year for a child joining in Year 3 who would not otherwise be able to take up their hardearned place for financial reasons.
The first ever ‘Grow a Fiver’ entrepreneurial challenge caught the imagination of our Prep pupils in the autumn, inspiring 94 children, more than half of the whole school, to set up and run businesses. With many more friends and classmates buying their brilliant products and services, the children raised a fantastic £4,469.70 for the Prep Bursary Fund.
Our student-led fundraising club which is some 30 members strong, has boosted the Bursaries Appeal by an amazing £25,000 since 2018.
Over the last few months, RAIS£ club have held lots of exciting sales and events, from a film night to our ever-popular merchandise, through to an easter egg sale and delivery service.
Here are just two of our favourites…
Christmas Fair
We got into the festive spirit at the Parents Gild 2021 Christmas Fair. It was wonderful to join an in-person event again after two difficult years of the pandemic, and so nice to see members from across the Latymer community come together. Our most popular product of the day was by far our festive hot chocolate cones, in the style of a reindeer and complete with candy cane. Altogether, we proudly raised almost £500!
150 Year 7 students took to the dancefloor for our RAIS£ Disco in May.
In doing so, we raised over an incredible £2,000 for the Bursaries Appeal.
A range of activities were on offer from photo booths and games, to the allimportant dancing (and tuck shop).
The RAIS£ Senior Ambassadors, leading the way in fundraising across the Upper School
We decided to join RAIS£ due to its ability to engage Latymer students in a charitable venture, and show them how their efforts can make real, positive change towards Latymer’s Bursary Appeal.
Noam, Bee, Agnes – All Yr12
During the latter decades of the 20th century, Latymer opted to retain its independence, rather than be subsumed into the maintained sector and hand over its curriculum to government control. Following the demise in the mid 1990s of the centrally funded Assisted Places scheme (and the Direct Grant programme before that), Latymer couldn’t afford to provide free or subsidised places from its own resources for those who excelled academically, but whose parents could not afford to pay fees. By the turn of the century, Latymer’s financial position was distinctly precarious and our Governors’ main focus was on the survival of this great school, notwithstanding their desire to preserve Latymer’s longstanding history of recruiting academically able young people from all walks of life.
Thanks to the then Chair of Governors, Latymerian John Bullock (1951), Latymer’s finances were put onto a more even keel, so that when Peter Winter arrived as Head in 2002, he and John’s successor, Professor Richard Perham (1955), could start the work of restoring
access to a Latymer education for young people from all financial backgrounds. The only way of funding this new bursary programme was to look to our School community for its support and the first few bursaries were funded by generous gifts from Latymerians. By September 2006, 22 students were benefitting from a full means-tested scholarship, but this represented less than 2% of the school roll.
I joined Latymer in 2009 and since then, with the wholehearted support of Peter Winter and his successor as Head, David Goodhew, my primary focus has been on expanding our bursary programme so that Latymer can remain true to its founding ethos for generations yet to come.
It was with some trepidation that we launched our Inspiring Minds campaign in 2017. The £40 million target was more ambitious than anything previously attempted by a UK school but, in order to make significant progress towards our goal of a more inclusive Latymer, we needed to be bold.
What has happened since then has been truly remarkable. Early conversations with a few cornerstone donors helped to give the campaign invaluable momentum and, in the following years, I have been truly overwhelmed by the outpouring of support for the aims of Inspiring Minds from all corners of our Latymer community. Current and former students and their parents, as well as members of staff and Governors, have shown how strongly they support our vision of a Latymer that offers an inspirational education to young people, irrespective of their family background.
All of us at the Latymer Foundation would like to extend our warmest thanks to everyone who has contributed to our Inspiring Minds campaign in any way since its inception in 2014. We are especially grateful to our generous donors, some of whom are named below, and others who wish to remain anonymous. The following list includes donations made through May 2022. Huge apologies if, due to human error, we omitted your name. Please do let us know and we will correct it for next year’s Review.

Hundreds of individuals have rallied round and offered their time, enthusiasm and money to help us achieve our goal.
The wonderful news is that we have raised £39 million over the intervening years and there are currently 244 students in our school thanks to a full or partial bursary; they represent 20% of the school roll. 52 full bursaries are now backed by endowment, which means that Latymer will never again be forced to relinquish that social mix which is so integral to its ethos. Our ultimate aim is that Latymer Upper School becomes ‘need-blind’ so that we can offer a Latymer education to academically ambitious young people irrespective of their family’s ability to pay our fees. Our first milestone was to raise £40m, in order to fund bursaries for 1 in 4 of our pupils and we hope to hit that milestone next year. That will not be the end of our fundraising journey however. Every year we will need to seek funding for those bursaries not backed by permanent endowment, so that Latymer can continue to inspire the minds of future generations of young people, irrespective of their social or financial backgrounds.
I thank our School community wholeheartedly for all the incredible support we have received in our quest to break down the financial barriers to a Latymer education and I hope I can continue to count on you in the years ahead.

The 1624 Society was created to recognise those who have made provision for the Latymer Foundation in their will. Legacies play a key role in building our endowment and help us to protect our founder’s legacy for future generations of Latymerians.
