About St Aloysius RC College
St Aloysius’ College was founded in 1879 by the Brothers of Mercy as a Roman Catholic Independent School, then passed to the De La Salle Brothers in 1960. St Aloysius’ College is privileged to be the oldest surviving foundation of its kind in the Archdiocese of Westminster.
Today, St Aloysius’ College is a comprehensive 11-18 Roman Catholic boys school and is proud of its Catholic tradition. The College has a good academic reputation, providing a caring environment and positive outcomes. Upon entering the school each boy is given a sound and stimulating curriculum. The College is housed on a magnificent site off Highgate Hill overlooking a panorama of London together with thirteen acres of playing fields.
There is a commitment to encouraging a strong Catholic ethos and the whole atmosphere of the school reflects this in Religious lessons, Assemblies and Acts of Worship, as well as in the attitude of pupils, parents and teachers. The school is pleased to welcome teachers of other faiths who will support our ethos.
We emphasise high standards and we, therefore, expect the boys to work hard and uphold the traditional values of discipline and respect.
