Haverstock School
About Haverstock School
Haverstock School is a mixed state secondary in Camden, London, serving 909 pupils aged 11 to 18. In the local authority's landscape of 16 secondary schools, it sits among a group that includes top-performing peers such as Camden School for Girls, Parliament Hill School, and La Sainte Union Catholic Secondary School. The nearest school rated Outstanding is Parliament Hill School, 1.5 kilometres away, but Haverstock itself has carved out a solid position. Its most recent graded Ofsted inspection, in 2019, awarded it an overall Good rating, with leadership and management also judged Good. An ungraded inspection in December 2024 confirmed that standards have been maintained. This marks a clear improvement from its previous graded inspection in 2017, when the school was rated Requires Improvement. For families in Camden looking for a non-denominational, co-educational secondary that has demonstrably turned around its performance, Haverstock offers a credible and stable option.
