Highbury Fields School is a community in which everyone enjoys academic and social success. An 11 to 18 girls’ school, we serve a culturally rich, but often underprivileged, community and are fiercely determined that every child in our care will become a confident young woman, who is socially and academically accomplished.
The school’s 2016 ‘outstanding’ OFSTED report and 2019 progress 8 score of 0.82 have established our students’ reputation for academic excellence and we are highly regarded in the local community for our calm, focused learning environment. Our student’s GCSE results in 2022 indicate that this level of progress has been maintained.
However, we are neither complacent nor satisfied. The school strives to be excellent in all aspects of its work but there are vital areas of our provision that are yet to meet our exacting standards or our ambitions for our students. Our dedicated Maths team is currently revising the year 7- 9 Maths curriculum, to ensure excellent progress for all students.
‘As a school in which everyone is recognised as an individual, Highbury Fields inspires students to be highly aspirational and have very positive attitudes to their education.’
