WELCOME TO THE NORTH BRIDGE HOUSE FAMILY OF SCHOOLS IN NORTH LONDON
At North Bridge House, we dedicate ourselves to deeply understanding each pupil as a unique individual. We believe success encompasses more than excellent academic results—it’s about each student discovering the path that aligns with their distinct talents and personality. Guided by our excellent teachers and the wealth of opportunities both within and outside the classroom, a North Bridge education helps every student achieve their full academic and personal potential, leading them on their journey to finding their True North.
OUR UNIQUE SCHOOLS
Whether you are looking for one of our vibrant campuses transitioning to Alleyn’s Regent’s Park (September 2025) or Alleyn’s Hampstead (September 2026), or are seeking our Canonbury Senior and Sixth Form (students aged 11 to 18) in leafy Islington, we offer a variety of choices. Families can benefit from the option of a stress-free all-through education or choose individually tailored preparation for the next stage of their child’s school career.
Our Regent’s Park Prep School for 4 to 13-year-olds is becoming Alleyn’s Regent’s Park this Autumn. Our Nursery, Pre-Prep and Senior School in Hampstead are transitioning to become an all-through option, complete with a Junior School in September 2026.

Our final day of the summer term was full of celebration and a few slices of cake, of course! Each class enjoyed their own party, and we even marked a few birthdays along the way - a wonderful end to another fantastic year.
Wishing all our pupils, families, and staff a well deserved restful, sunshine-filled summer break.☀️

A day to remember at Wimbledon!
A lucky group of students spent Quarter Finals Day soaking up the atmosphere, watching world-class tennis, and enjoying strawberries on Henman Hill.
They were then treated to an amazing afternoon on Centre Court - watching Sabalenka battle through a gripping three-set match, followed by Alcaraz showcasing incredible skill in his straight-sets win over Norrie. The trip ended with pizza in the Southern Village before heading home! Students were selected for their outstanding attitude in PE this year, a well-deserved treat and a much sunnier outing than their last rain-soaked visit! 🌞🍓🎾

Year 1 recently ventured into the wild at Hobbledown Heath, where they enjoyed a science-packed day discovering animals in interactive enclosures - from capybaras and lemurs to birds of prey!
They voyaged through four themed play villages, complete with tunnels, towers, water play, and giant net parks; climbed wooden forts; raced down slides; and even met friendly farm creatures.
A perfect hands-on celebration to crown an incredible year of growth, exploration and wonder! 🐾🌿

We’ve just wrapped up Sports Day 2025 at StoneX Stadium! The day has been nothing short of House spirit and healthy competition. Students took part in a range of activities including the relay, 100m sprint, tug of war, long jump, sack race, javelin - showing fantastic effort throughout the day.
Well done to all our students for making it such a memorable day, as always, and thank you to our brilliant PE team and wider staff for organising another great Sports Day. We’re also grateful to the parents who came along to support.
Congratulations to this year’s winning House… 🔴 Decus! 🔴
