Our unique facilities

A modern, purpose-built school means we can provide an attractive and dynamic learning environment for pupils and staff alike.

A quiet, yet amazingly spacious building, its walls and exhibition spaces have works of art in profusion and variety - most of which are produced by pupils. Outside, to the south, flows the River Thames, whilst to the north the dome of St Paul’s Cathedral is rarely out of view: an altogether inspiring environment in which to study and grow up.

The courtyard and upper playground are particular assets, providing light, fresh air and space. In the heart of London there is room for boys to practise sports, to run and to play.

Virtually all members of staff have their own teaching room and each of our departments has a teaching suite, a staff common room, connections to the School’s computer network and a full range of specialist audio-visual equipment, which is supported by three full-time ICT technicians.

Inside the building you will also find a large library, a separate bookshop, a theatre to seat nearly two hundred as well as a separate drama studio, numerous music practice rooms, a fully-equipped gymnasium, a sports hall, three squash courts and a swimming pool. City of London School is a large school on a large site. Our boys also benefit from over twenty acres of sports pitches, tennis courts and running tracks at our Grove Park site.
