Message from

Councillor Pauline Coakley Webb

Barnet is very proud of the diversity of its schools, all of which provide an

excellent education. Pupils educated in our borough achieve some of the

best examination results in the country, both at GCSE and A level.

At the same time, local schools provide a wide range of sporting, musical and other

activities that give children a rich and broad education. We know that the secondary

school application process can seem daunting, schools and the council together work

hard to make the process as smooth as possible.

The admissions system is co-ordinated across the whole of the London area and

is operated by all 33 London boroughs. This booklet explains that co-ordinated

secondary transfer process in detail and also provides information about all the

secondary schools in Barnet.

It is important that you read the booklet carefully and look closely at each school¡¯s

admissions criteria in order to make the right choice for your child.

All Barnet schools have open events where you will be able to find out more about the

schools that interest you. Further details are on page 19 of this booklet.

I hope that your child will enjoy his or her time at secondary school and I am sure

the education children receive in Barnet will give them the skills, knowledge and

qualifications to help them succeed in their future lives.

Councillor Pauline Coakley Webb

Chairman of the Children, Education

and Safeguarding Committee
