About The Henrietta Barnett School
HBS is a warm, friendly and vibrant community that prides itself on happy and productive relationships. We are consistently one of the top state schools in the country and have an exemplary local and national reputation for academic excellence. In Summer 2025, 86% of A Levels achieved were grades A*-B and at GCSE, 97% were grades 7 to 9.
Dame Henrietta Barnett strongly believed in the power of education to shape people’s lives and founded the School to provide educational opportunities of the highest quality for its students. She built the School on the principle that education should be open to girls from different backgrounds to study and learn together and from each other. This principle is alive and well at HBS.
Our school community is built on authenticity, encouraging students to be genuine to themselves while acting with credibility and trust. We foster a spirit of endeavour by empowering individuals to lead with purpose, embrace challenges, and persevere through ambitious goals. Driven by curiosity, our learners proactively seek knowledge and engage in rigorous inquiry to stay informed about the world around them. We prioritise connection by cultivating meaningful relationships between people and ideas, all while ensuring that kindness - expressed through compassion and respect - remains central to our interactions both within and beyond the school.
As proud as we are of the extraordinary achievements of our pupils - and as important as these achievements are- we are equally proud of the warm, sincere and collaborative community which exists here. This is a school in which authentic academic curiosity is nurtured and sits at the heart of teaching and learning, not an instrumentalist pursuit of exam outcomes. This is a school which prizes a broad, enriching curriculum, and developing future-focused competencies and skills as much as deep individual subject knowledge. This is a school where staff are keenly aware of the interaction between positive mental health, wellbeing, feeling connected and academic success and seek to support and promote all these areas for our pupils. These elements- perhaps less well known about us- are what drive our excellence.
