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.

Christmas Is Coming!
1 day agoIt's beginning to look a lot like Christmas at The Cavendish School - I expect your daughters will come home and tell you that some elves put up our tree and our nativity scene at the weekend!
Historical Characters
4 days agoYear 3 have created a fabulous timeline along their corridor, populated with important people from long ago to today. See our Facebook page for further instantly recognisable portraits.
Science and Music
1 week agoYear 4 pupils have been exploring changing pitch in their science lessons. For homework, they variously played a didgeridoo, made their own pan pipes out of straws or bamboo, and, as in this photo, blew into bottles containing different levels of water. Well done everyone!
Friendship Feathers

Climbing To The Top

Lest We Forget
2 weeks agoWe've made these lovely wreaths with lots of red poppies (and a few white ones) to commemorate fallen soldiers. You can see them hanging on our Inverness Street gate, and if you look up close, you may be able to see how they were created.
Fire Away!
3 weeks agoYear 6 were enjoying working with clay today. Inspired by William Morris they are making tiles. These will be fired and coloured (aren't we lucky to have our own kiln on site?) and we can't wait to see the results.
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.

We love to show visitors round our school, and we know nothing can replace a real life tour in person. But while we are unable to welcome you during social distancing measures, these videos will at least provide a flavour of what makes us special.
