If you have moved into the area and would like your child to join the Northolt High School community, you will also apply through the London Borough of Ealing. If you are offered a place at Northolt High School we will invite you and your child to meet with us to discuss life as part of our school community and to answer any of your questions.
We offer high quality teaching, small class sizes, tailored mentoring programmes and staff who are committed to our students. Our school motto ‘Committed to Excellence’ is vital in the sixth form as our students continue their further studies, carry out work experience and apply for universities or prepare for the world of work.
Students will be provided opportunities and encouraged to play a role in the wider school community. We give responsibility to our older students to ensure they are positive role models for younger students and that they are prepared for life. Students will deliver assemblies for younger students, run clubs and activities, represent our school for open evenings and two students will be elected to be our school leaders. Students are challenged at every step to reach their full potential. Our school is not only driven by our passion for academic rigour, but also in developing our students’ life skills.
