Description

Over the last two years, the school has grown and developed into an exciting and vibrant place to be. The community has increased in size and, throughout the week, the school now has a constant buzz. The different sounds that echo around the school: of music playing; students talking and laughing; parents chatting and teachers imparting their knowledge and wisdom in the classrooms, are wonderful to hear. The first year of a school is always special, but for me, it is the subsequent years when the school really grows and develops. As with a complex ecosystem, the connections between different parts of the school begin to fuse as students, parents, staff and the wider community share a multitude of interactions and experiences. Everyone knows each other, greetings are shared in the morning, farewells in the afternoon, smiles exchanged, shoulders are leant on, and friendships shared. The security, happiness and the North London Collegiate School ethos are all palpable.
