Monken Hadley School is built on the edge of the Monken Hadley Common at the northern tip of the London Borough of Barnet. Monks founded Monken Hadley in the 13th century and a school was built by the Church of England in partnership with the government in 1832. The Common leads to Hadley Woods which used to be part of Enfield Chase. Royalty hunted here and in 1777 King George III passed an act of parliament giving the villagers local farming rights.
There are 150 children housed in 5 classes. The school enjoys a strong partnership with the parish church of St Mary the Virgin and the school church service is held there every week. The school badge features the church tower and its 'creset beacon'.
