How would you describe Hendon Prep to someone new?
Hendon Prep is one of North London’s best‑kept secrets, and those who discover it quickly understand why.
From the moment you step through our doors, there is a clear sense of warmth, purpose and belonging. Children are happy, confident and fully engaged in their learning, supported by staff who know them exceptionally well and are deeply committed to their success and wellbeing.
We welcome families from our local community alongside those from across the world, creating a vibrant and genuinely international environment. This diversity enriches school life and helps develop open‑minded, compassionate young people who feel secure and confident in the world around them.
Guided by our ethos, “Lead with Courage. Learn with Pride,” Hendon Prep is a school where children are known, valued and celebrated. We empower every pupil to develop their strengths, build confidence and inspire them to discover their passions.
What elements of school life set Hendon Prep apart?
One of our defining strengths is our genuinely personalised approach to education. Our size allows us to understand each child in depth, enabling teaching and pastoral care to be tailored carefully to individual strengths, needs and aspirations.
We place equal importance on academic excellence, wellbeing and character development. While remaining rooted in the values of a high‑quality traditional prep school, we are also forward‑thinking in our use of technology, ensuring pupils benefit from innovative digital tools that enhance learning and prepare them for the future.
Our pupils achieve strong academic outcomes and progress to leading independent senior schools at 11+. Families are supported throughout this process by our extensive experience and tailored guidance to ensure the right fit for each child.
What are your hopes and ambitions for the year ahead?
We are proud to be part of Blenheim Schools, whose vision closely aligns with our own: to empower every child, whatever their ability, with a world-class education that nurtures potential, inspires lifelong learning, and equips them to thrive in a diverse and evolving world.
Over the year ahead, our ambition is to continue providing our outstanding academic provision, expand enrichment and further develop digital learning in ways that enhance creativity and collaboration, while keeping wellbeing at the heart of everything we do.
Are there any dates you are particularly looking forward to this year?
We warmly invite families to experience Hendon Prep at our forthcoming Open Morning on 18 March, as well as our Reception Taster Session on Friday 13 February.
These events provide the opportunity to meet our staff and pupils, explore the school and see first‑hand how a Hendon Prep education can empower, inspire and include every child.
