The 'outstanding' school is the smallest primary school in Barnet with less than 150 pupils, aged from 4 to 11. It is operated jointly under the auspices of the local education authority (of the London Borough of Barnet) and the Diocesan Board of Education (of the Diocese of London). As a church we provide a majority of the school Governors, including our Rector, who is a Governor of the school ex-officio and several of our church members regularly volunteer to support the teaching team.
The Rector is vice-chair of the Governing Board and in regular contact with the school. The children visit the church regularly. They attend for assorted lessons during the year, and also monthly for a school service. There are special services in church for the school to mark Harvest, Christmas, and other festivals. At the end of each school year we hold a 'leavers service' and Bible presentation.
