About Church Hill School

Church Hill School, a state primary in Barnet for mixed pupils aged 4 to 11, outperforms the local authority average on the key headline measure of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths. In the 2023/24 academic year, 78% of its Year 6 pupils hit that combined benchmark, compared with a Barnet average of 73% for primary schools. That places the school 30th out of 91 primary schools in the borough, comfortably in the top third. Its ranking score of 78 puts it within the top 25% of primary schools nationally, according to the data. The school is also oversubscribed: for 2025/26 entry, it received 101 applications for just 16 places, with 12 of those offers going to first-preference families. That works out at more than six applications per place, a clear sign of local demand.
