North London Collegiate School

North London Collegiate School is a top independent day school for girls aged 4-18. Since its founding in 1850, generations of girls have received an ambitious academic education and formed a bond with NLCS, which lasts forever. We provide a carefully judged blend of support and challenge, a friendly and warm atmosphere, glorious facilities and extensive extra-curricular activities.

We are proud of our tradition of producing independent minded young women with the drive to make the most of opportunities and a difference in the world. That was the vision of the founder, Frances Mary Buss, in 1850, and it remains at the heart of the School's aims today. 

We have a strong track record of enabling students gain entry to their first choice of university, but exam success is only part of the picture; passionate teachers inspire pupils with a love of their subject which goes beyond the exam syllabus.

NLCS celebrates the individual and creative spirit of the pupils. We have a vibrant music and arts provision, that allows each pupil to explore and discover her own strengths, and our 50 clubs and societies help students develop a relaxed self-confidence and to enjoy their time here at Canons.
