The Cavendish School
Welcome to The Cavendish School
A small, inclusive independent school in Camden Town for girls aged 3 to 11.
Non-selective at entry, we pride ourselves on our high level of pastoral care which we combine with high-quality teaching and a broad, balanced curriculum enriched with arts, languages and sport to ensure that the needs of each individual child are met. The Cavendish School puts praise, encouragement and reward at the heart of developing confidence in each pupil.

We are so pleased that our daughter - and our whole family - is a part of The Cavendish School community.
It really is a special place, tucked away in the middle of Camden.
The enthusiasm of the teachers is amazing, but what is most impressive is the positive and confident character of the girls. A truly special place.
It's a lovely school. The girls are very happy and so are we.
We fell in love with the school the moment we set foot in it and have not been disappointed.
