Head Teacher's Message

The Fulham Boys School opened with its first cohort of 80 Year 7 pupils in September 2014. We now have over 800 students on roll, including a thriving Sixth Form. The school moved into its new, purpose-built building located in the heart of Fulham in March 2021. FBS is a Free School, which means we are an independent, publicly funded school. We embrace our independence which is evident in the way we design our curriculum, structure our school day, appoint and retain our staff, manage our finances and above all in our distinctive school ethos.
