The Cavendish School
Welcome to The Cavendish School
Our girls do brilliantly because they are encouraged.
We foster a lively atmosphere of warm support, full of fun and laughter; one that builds the confidence to take risks, explore interests and engage with the world and with each other. We achieve this by combining exceptional pastoral care, dedicated and talented staff teaching small classes, and state of the art facilities in Camden Town. And we really know and care deeply about each of the girls.
As a result, despite being non-selective, we attain remarkable academic successes and our pupils at 11+ transfer to excellent senior schools, often with scholarships.

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.
Our New Videos!
A few short films to introduce you to life at The Cavendish School
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.
