About Stoke Newington School

Stoke Newington School is a mixed, state secondary for 11 to 16 year olds in the London borough of Hackney, led by headteacher Annie Gammon.

The nearest of those is Mossbourne Community Academy, just 1.5 kilometres away, which also ranks as the second highest-performing school in the area with a ranking score of 1.47.

Stoke Newington School itself holds a Good rating from Ofsted, placing it in the solid middle tier of Hackney’s secondaries.
