About Deansbrook Junior School

Ofsted’s Parent View data isn’t published for this school, but the fact that Deansbrook Junior School is oversubscribed tells its own story. With 258 pupils against a capacity of 360, the school is clearly drawing families from across Barnet. The most recent Ofsted inspection, in March 2023, rated the school Good across every category — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and leadership and management.
