Hendon School is a family – albeit a very large and diverse family – and we celebrate that. We are stronger because of our differences and because of the way that we work together. Our school is entering a new and dynamic phase of its development and this year we have been working to articulate the vision and values that underpin our school community.
At Hendon School we work in partnership with parents, the local community and other schools, both in England and Internationally. Recently we were honoured to be invited to join the Mayors Gold Club, which allows us to share good practice with other London schools. We are a National Citizen Service Champion School and hold the British Council International Schools Award. We work closely with our local feeder primary schools, both as part of our high involvement transition programme and also to enrich and inspire younger students.
Hendon is an amazing school. We are passionate about education and about working with our young people to give them the best opportunities and to help them to be ready for the next stage of their life. We take good care of them and work with them to unlock their potential.
