In the inspectors' and the school's words

Academic: Examination outcomes at GCSE, A level and for the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) are consistently high.[21]
Warmth: Pupils are tolerant, respectful and caring of their peers. Leaders create a diverse, inclusive and caring community, with a clear commitment to promoting respect, tolerance and service to others.[21]
Pastoral care: Leaders at all levels prioritise pupils’ wellbeing. closely monitor individual pupils’ participation to ensure their needs are met and that they are not overloaded or put under undue pressure.[21]
Behaviour: Pupils have high standards of behaviour because behaviour management is effective. Incidents of bullying or anti-social behaviour are rare.[21]
Learning support: Pupils who have special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) also achieve well because of the targeted support that they receive. the work of the neurodiversity club fosters a deep understanding of pupils’ different needs.[21]
Enrichment: The extensive co-curricular programme is a significant strength of the school. As a result, participation rates are consistently very high.[21]
Pupil voice: The pupil-led school council considers all aspects of pupils’ school experience. Pupils speak enthusiastically about changes as a result of their work[21]
Independence: so they become inquisitive, open-minded learners. In science, pupils in the sixth form display advanced practical competence and independence in managing experimental work.[21]
Collaboration: Pupils of all ages work together effectively. Many clubs are deliberately pupil led to develop leadership and teamwork skills.[21]
Structure: Staff follow the behaviour policy closely and apply it fairly. Leaders consistently communicate their high expectations to pupils about behaviour through the curriculum, assemblies and school values.[21]
Diversity: It is evident in the harmonious relationships between pupils from diverse backgrounds. The school takes every opportunity to celebrate diversity and promote inclusion.[21]
Sport: The range is extensive with some pupils regularly achieving success at national and international level. Pupils choose whether to be involved in team or individual competitive sports, or to take part in non-competitive alternatives.[21]
Performing arts: In music and technology, pupils show highly developed creative skills. there is something for everyone, including many sports, music, drama and societies.[21]
Visual arts: Pupils’ understanding of aesthetic values is reflected in their vibrant artwork which is displayed around the school.[21]

Students normally join Godolphin and Latymer at 11+ and 16+ and the school is typically full to capacity in all year-groups. However, very occasionally students do leave - such as if their family moves abroad - and places may become available for entry into Year 8, Year 9 and Year 10. (p. 1)
For entry into these year-groups we are looking for candidates who will flourish academically and will keep pace with their year-group peers. (p. 1)
