Description
betaHaverstock School, located at 24 Haverstock Hill, NW3 2BQ, is a comprehensive coeducational secondary school and sixth form in Haverstock, London. Established in 1874, the school educates students aged 11 to 18. The institution is part of Camden Local Authority and has a current enrollment of around 1,252 students. Haverstock School is known for its creative performance viewings, such as its 2021 production of Disney's "Aladdin".
The school underwent a £21 million re-build in 2006 and has since been recognized as Camden's first private finance initiative (PFI) school. Although it began as Haverstock Comprehensive School and Haverstock Hill School, Haverstock now carries the motto 'Always Learning' and is an Ofsted-inspected institution. In 2018, 66% of students achieved a grade 4 (equivalent to the old C) in Maths and English, representing a significant improvement from the previous year's results.
Notable alumni include English football internationals like John Barnes, Joe Cole, and Jermaine Eluemunor, as well as politicians such as former Labour Party politician David Miliband. The school's Progress 8 score in 2022 was -0.1, which indicates that pupils made less progress than their peers across England who achieved similar key stage 2 results. Although Haverstock's 2017 Ofsted inspection gave the school a rating of 'Good,' this has since been upgraded to 'Requiring Improvement' according to a 2017 report.
