Headteacher's Welcome

Welcome to our school website. We are a mixed Foundation school for students aged 11 to 19, in the heart of Northolt, West London.

Our students are drawn from diverse backgrounds and we are proud of the warm and positive relationships they form. We proactively teach tolerance and respect and as a consequence our students are positive about school life, feeling safe, happy and enthusiastic about learning.

Our curriculum is broad and balanced, creating opportunities for students to explore their beliefs and
to develop principles which enable them to become valuable members of our school and their wider communities. We are proud to promote our ‘STEAM’ specialism, which places great emphasis on the STEM subjects such as Computing, Mathematics and Science alongside a real focus on the Arts.
The wider curriculum is also important to us which is visible in many ways. For example, our older students are trained to act as role models to younger students through a variety of peer mentoring programmes, providing them with valuable opportunities for them to develop their communication
and leadership skills.

We have real ambition for our students to become confident, articulate and socially skilled, with a strong sense of their place in society. Students are supported by a range of talented and well-qualified staff who are nurturing and skilled in meeting their needs. This is why our students make such excellent academic progress during their time with us. Our mission statement - seizing the opportunity, instilling ambition, realising potential - along with our school vision of being committed to excellence effectively capture our approach to life at Northolt High School.
