Mount House School is a small, co-educational independent day school for students aged 11 – 18 years located on a stunning rural site on Camlet Way in the London Borough of Barnet.  With 217 students currently on roll, the School has ambitious plans and investment to grow to 350 in the coming years.  Small class sizes and modern teaching methods supported by outstanding pastoral care combine to ensure each student achieves their best, whilst a broad and varied co-curricular programme equips them with the skills needed to thrive in adult life.  The School’s vision is underpinned by ASPIRE, values that enable each student to be Adaptable, Supportive, Principled, Inquisitive, Resilient and Excellent.
