Henrietta Barnett School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

(:The Henrietta Barnett School is a voluntary-aided grammar school for girls in Hampstead Garden Suburb in London, in fact one of the few grammar schools allowed to remain. It was founded by Dame Henrietta Barnett for the education of girls. The school was judged by The Times newspaper to rank 14th and 12th best achieving state school according to GCSE[1] and A Level[2] results, respectively.

The school's origins lie in the desire of Henrietta Barnett to improve girls' education, in her time at a low level. She believed in a society where poor girls had access to the same levels of education as those girls in more privileged sections of society.

The school's headteacher is currently Mr Blond and its deputy head is Ms Watts. It has two school newspapers, both run by dedicated students: the Acorn and the (unofficial magazine) the BCorn.

The school has spawned many free-thinking popular movements, most recently Practical Socialism, which caught the Zeitgeist amongst youth in certain areas of North London for about 3 years from 2000 to 2002. This last paragraph is a lie.

  2. ^ The Times top state schools at A Level

However, we are not sure if it is a lie.
