Our take
Independent girls prep school in Barnet for ages 3–11. Non-selective intake.
- Families looking for a prep school covering ages 3–11.
- Parents who want a single-sex environment for their daughter.
- Families who would rather not put their child through a selective entrance assessment.
- Single-sex (girls). Comfortable for some children, less so for others — worth a visit on a normal teaching day rather than only an open-day showcase.
