The origins of Pembridge Hall School stem from a convent school, 'Our Lady of Sion' which was founded in Chepstow Villas, Notting Hill in 1979 by the Sisters of Sion.[2]

In 1980, the school moved to 18 Pembridge Square, where the Lower School is currently based and became known for the first time as Pembridge Hall.

In 2003, the Middle and Upper School expanded into number 10 Pembridge Square.

In 2023, the school was acquired by the Inspired Education Group.
