About St Paul’s

St Paul’s School is a unique blend of modernity and traditional values, diversity of background and continuity of care, tolerance and capacity for creative debate.

We are proud that our pupils leave us as young men of principle, spirit and imagination. They take the values our school is founded on into the wider world.

In 1509, our founder John Colet established our new school to be an inclusive meritocracy in which boys “from all nacions and countres indifferently” would be educated, without regard to means or race. Accordingly, our pupils reflect the makeup of the capital city we call home.
