Why Westbrook Crescent?
The governors, head, teachers and pupils of East Barnet School were keen to see their school brought together on a single site. The existing East Barnet school buildings were in serious need of repair and there was a pressing demand from parents for more faith-based schooling in the borough, with the East Barnet site at the heart of North London’s Jewish community. Redevelopment of the Westbrook Crescent site enabled the Council to address all these issues at once and provided not one but two brand new schools for Barnet.
