About the School - North Bridge House Senior School (Hampstead)

In September 2026 we will welcome our first Year 3 cohort with years 4, 5 and 6 following, to create a through school from aged 2-18 in Hampstead.

All campuses are about to embark on a transformational development programme as they prepare to be part of the Alleyn's Schools Group. Remodelling and refurbishment of existing facilities, together with a comprehensive building plan will not only enhance the teaching and learning environments but will provide first-rate facilities and position Alleyn's as a leading provider in the North London market.

The school now has an exciting opportunity for an experienced Teacher of Science to join our fantastic team.
