About Hatch End High School

Hatch End High School is a popular choice among local families, with 515 applications for 200 places in the 2025/26 admissions round, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.58. Of those applications, 100 were first-preference offers, meaning exactly half of the available places went to families who had ranked the school as their top choice. The school does not publish a parent recommendation percentage in its data, but the sheer volume of applications relative to places suggests strong local demand. The school is a mixed, non-faith secondary in Harrow, led by headteacher Marianne Jeanes, and its most recent Ofsted inspection in February 2024 confirmed it remains a Good school, a rating it has held consistently across its previous inspections.
