From the St Mary's CofE Primary School
A two-form entry primary school with a nursery, St Mary's C.E. Primary School is located in Finchley Central. We are a thriving, welcoming school where students have a wide range of possibilities to excel in their academic work as well as in the arts and sports. At St. Mary's, we take pleasure in our superb provision of all the aforementioned services. The Christian qualities of compassion, endurance, reverence, hope, service, and thankfulness serve as the cornerstones of our school's strong Christian ethos. However, we do accept kids of all faiths or none, as we work hard to completely serve our varied community. Please don't assume that the school is full if you should be interested in applying because there are occasionally openings. To ensure that all children have an equal chance of enrolling in the school, spaces are divided into two categories: church (foundation) and non-church (open). This website seeks to introduce you to the institution while also regularly updating information for both parents and students. Any questions you may have can be directed to the school directly. Please visit our main School Information page for more about our school, including our Admissions information and School Policies. Please visit our Parent Information page for details on our school uniform lists, school lunches, and more if you are a parent or carer of a student at our school. For more information on our School Values Award, School Council, and Eco Council, students should visit our Pupil Information page.
