[edit] Structure
The Falcons is a non-selective school, applying the best of both traditional and progressive teaching approaches. At age 3, girls join the nursery, which is the main point of entry to the school.
The girls leaving the school at the end of Year Six, aged 11, go onto to win places at top London independent day schools, including Francis Holland Clarence Gate, Godolphin & Latymer, Harvington School, Heathfield School, Latymer Upper School, More House, Notting Hill & Ealing High School, St Augustine's Priory School, St James' School for Girls, St Paul's Girls' School and the Harrodian School - as well as boarding schools such as Wycombe Abbey and Downe House. In recent years, girls have won scholarship places at 11+.
