Welcome to St. Joseph’s Catholic Primary School Hendon

Please click here to access Covid-19 remote learning 

St. Joseph’s Catholic Primary School is a vibrant and historic part of the neighbourhood of Hendon in North West London. Founded in 1882 initially as a boarding school, the school has survived two World Wars and gone from strength to strength. We work to give our children the best possible education in the fullest sense of the word – academically, spiritually and emotionally.

The gospel principles of loving your neighbour, of compassion and of justice permeate all aspects of our school life. We are a friendly and outward-looking school community, welcoming families from all parts of the world. We are proud of our success in academic exams and achievements on the sports field, and we also have good links with local, national and international charities and organizations.

Please take time to browse our website to find out more about the school and the fantastic activities we are involved in.

    Coronavirus Update
    Good morning, This ever evolving situation continues to put pressure on us all and last night’s announcement by the government – recommending self-isolation in situations where a household member is unwell – is already putting extreme pressure on school staffing. I can only see this situation getting worse over the coming days. We are attempting to stay open – and will do for as long as possible – but once our staffing levels drop to a point where we cannot effectively supervise children to keep them safe, then we will need to shut. This is already happening across London and I have had confirmation today that several schools have shut due to ‘operational issues’. It is my recommendation that parents begin to make contingency plans for childcare as soon as possible. Our duty to support children and families will continue even when shut, so please be advised of the following; · Currently we will not be sending work home to children who are self-isolating, however, if the school closes we will provide work for children to complete at home with parents / carers. If you do not have a computer or device capable of supporting home learning please let your child’s class teacher know. · We will ensure that children eligible for free school meals will be able to access a daily meal – this will probably be in the form of a sandwich, fruit and drink available for collection from the school or some sort of voucher system. Contact the school office by email, office@stjosephs.barnet.sch.uk, to let us know if this is something you want as we will need to know the numbers. Please be assured of our continued dedication to the care and education of all our children in these uncertain times. I will update you with more information as soon as I can. Dr J Lane

    Coronavirus Update
    Good morning, We are truly in ‘unchartered territory’ with the current health emergency. As a school we are endeavouring to follow PHE advice and keep all of the St Joseph’s community safe. At the moment, the advice is that schools remain open – and whether you agree or disagree with that, I am mindful that we have pupils and staff at the school who may have asthma, a respiratory condition or some other condition that may make them vulnerable to Coronavirus. With that in mind can you please be vigilant for high temperature or other signs of the virus and keep children at home if you suspect they are unwell. Additionally, if you have been in contact with anyone who has contracted the virus, please self-isolate and do not send your child or children to school. As the virus can be transmitted while carriers are showing no sign of illness, no guarantees can be given that schools are totally virus free. If you are concerned that your child has an underlying health condition, please take PHE advice and isolate them from large gatherings – and that includes school. I can only assure you that we are doing everything we can to protect all of our community. We will update you as anything new comes to light.
