Headmaster's Welcome
A very warm welcome to The London Oratory School! Trad, but quirky, The London Oratory School is amongst the City’s most prestigious Roman Catholic schools. Founded and formed in the tradition of the light-hearted sixteenth century Italian St Philip Neri and the profound nineteenth century Englishman, St John Henry Newman, the School educates boys aged 7 to 18, with girls in the sixth form. As befits our Oratorian charism, we put a strong emphasis on music with a liturgical twist and on forming Catholic habits of being and seeing, all as part of a broad, balanced liberal arts curriculum.
