Recent University Places
Destination universities for 2019 include Oxbridge, Colorado, London’s Institute in Paris; Royal College of Music and all the Russell group universities.
Head Teacher’s Philosophy
Forest is an open-minded school with both feet on the ground, in which the pupils’ all-round personal development is outstanding and academic attainment is high. It is, above all, a happy school which understands the rich inter-relationship between the curricular, the co-curricular and the pastoral.
Outstanding Characteristics
Forest benefits from a tremendous location: surrounded by ancient forest but situated within a wonderfully diverse part of North-East London with 30 acres of grounds
