Central Foundation Girls’ School is an inner-city girls’ school in Bow, London, England, for 11- to 18-year-olds.

In 2011 Ofsted rated the school good with many outstanding features. The inspectors particularly liked the harmonious community and positive ethos. Students were praised for their courteous and respectful behaviour and keen attitudes to learning. Inspectors also praised the Parents’ Forum and range of classes for parents. Sixth form students were found to have a sense of self-direction and ambition and received good support and guidance with university applications. The inspectors also praised the headteacher for her inspirational leadership.

It is the sister school to Central Foundation Boys' School in Islington. Both schools are beneficiaries of the charity Central Foundation Schools of London,[1] which in turn is a beneficiary of The Dulwich Estate, successor to the historic Alleyn's College charity.[2]
