The Florence Nightingale School of Nursing and Midwifery is a school within King's College London. It is primarily concerned with the education of people to become nurses and midwives. It also carries out nursing research, continuing professional development and postgraduate programmes.

The School has a history which dates back to the first ever school of nursing opened by Florence Nightingale at St. Thomas' Hospital on 9 July 1860. The School forms part of the Waterloo campus on the South Bank of the River Thames and is now one of the largest schools in the university.
