St Paul's Girls' School
St Paul's Girls' School is an independent day school for girls, located in Brook Green, Hammersmith, in West London, England. It remains one of the leading schools in the United Kingdom, as supported by the consistent outperformance of other schools in examination results and university offers.
==History==
St Paul’s Girls’ School was founded by the Worshipful Company of Mercers in 1904, using part of the endowment of the foundation set up by John Colet, to create a girls’ school to complement the boys' school he had founded in the sixteenth century. The governors hold proprietorial responsibility, and some are representatives of the Universities of Oxford, Cambridge and London.
The buildings for the school were designed by the architect Gerald Horsley, the son of the painter John Callcott Horsley and one of the founder members of the Art Workers Guild.
The school has had several distinguished directors of music, most notably Gustav Holst (1905–34) and Herbert Howells (1936–62). Holst composed his ''St Paul's'' and ''Brook Green'' suites for the pupils at the school. Holst also composed what is arguably his most well known work, "The Planets", while teaching at St Paul's.
