There is a huge choice of private schools across London, from early years pre-prep and prep through to senior schools, including some with boarding.
In East London, there are well-known senior schools such as City of London School and City of London School for Girls, as well as prep schools such as St Paul's Cathedral School.
The London market for schools is often seen as very competitive, especially when it comes to senior school entry, as places at many of the leading London senior schools are highly sought-after.
For some parents, London offers the right choice for the prep school years, followed by choices outside of the capital for senior school at 11 or 13. Many senior boarding schools in the home counties have strong links with London, offering weekly bus services for pupils.
