Haverstock School (formerly Haverstock Comprehensive School and Haverstock Hill School), is a coeducational secondary school and sixth form located on Haverstock Hill in Haverstock, London, England. It is opposite Chalk Farm Underground station, and bounded by Prince of Wales Road and Crogsland Road.

History

The original school buildings were completed by 1874.[2] The school later became a comprehensive after World War II.[3]

The school is Camden's first private finance initiative (PFI) school and underwent a £21 million re-build in 2006.[4]

Standards

An Ofsted inspection in 2008 resulted in a judgement of Good, and that of 2017 as requiring improvement.

In 2018, 66% of students achieved a grade 4 (equivalent to the old C) in Maths and English—an improvement from the previous year's 31% result.[5]
