St Saviour's and St Olave's Church of England School, located in London's Borough of Southwark at SE1 4AN, is a secondary school and sixth form for girls with a rich heritage dating back to its establishment in 1903. It operates as a voluntary aided Church of England school, affiliated with the Anglican Diocese of Southwark and the Woodard Schools group. The school is associated with the Charity Commissioners' decision to provide education equality for girls in the area, following requests by the joint foundation's governors to utilize their endowment for this purpose. The educational institution offers specialist science education and serves pupils aged 11 to 18. It has been recognized by the Department for Education with the Urn code 100849.

St Saviour's and St Olave's Church of England School is a semi-independent establishment with a strength of 786 students as of April 2016. Catherine May serves as the headteacher, and the school is under the local authority of Southwark. Notable alumnae include actresses such as Liz Fraser, Kathleen Harrison, and Marianne Jean-Baptiste. The school holds an annual Commemoration Service at Southwark Cathedral, now known as the ancient parish church. Former Prime Minister Tony Blair once visited the school during the celebration of its centenary.
