The School
The Henrietta Barnett School is a fully selective girls’ grammar school, situated in the beautiful surroundings of Hampstead Garden Suburb. Dame Henrietta Barnett, who was a social reformer, pioneer of education and champion of the poor and needy, founded the school in 1911. Dame Henrietta strongly believed in the power of education to shape people’s lives and founded the school to provide educational opportunities for the highest quality for its students. We were delighted to be awarded the title of State School of the Year 2023 and 2025 for Academic Achievement by The Sunday Times Parent Power Guide for having the best GCSE and A Level results in the country. Over 25 students a year gain places at Oxbridge and the vast majority go on to study at the top universities in the country.
The aim of the school is to encourage and enable all students to make the most of their gifts and talents and to fulfil their academic and personal potential. We offer a challenging academic curriculum with enrichment opportunities throughout the school. We encourage students to enjoy their learning for its own sake and to value their independence of mind. We place great emphasis on high quality teaching & learning and provide regular high quality CPD opportunities for staff. Pastoral care and the well-being of our students and staff is our priority. The environment at HBS is unique; it is an extremely warm, friendly and vibrant school, with a very strong sense of community. We support all of our students and ensure that everyone is well known, valued and encouraged.
