North Bridge House Senior Hampstead
Catchment Area, Reviews and Key Information

Visit North Bridge House and have the opportunity to find out everything our school has to offer.

We are a school that truly believes in taking every opportunity for learning. Each student embarks on a unique journey to achieve more than they thought possible from their starting points, supported by our extensive pastoral provision and an individually tailored education. 

Our size is a key strength; we are large enough to facilitate different sports fixtures and school trips but small enough that each child is really known and can be properly understood by their teacher. 

With our rich curriculum designed to foster a genuine love of learning, students are prepared to enter higher education and the working world when they leave us. In addition to the core academic subjects, we provide a broad range of specialist subject options, and every year group benefits from our timetabled weekly enrichment programme.

Many of our students challenge themselves beyond the main curriculum, taking advantage of the LAMDA and instrumental lessons we offer, or individual language lessons in Mandarin, Russian and Italian, to name but a few.

We encourage every child to find their 'True North'  I very much look forward to welcoming you to one of our open events, where you can find out more about your child joining our diverse and high-achieving community.
