Info
The Royal School, Hampstead, was an exclusive independent girls' day and boarding school located in Hampstead, London, England. The school was founded in 1855 by Queen Victoria and for 200 years has educated girls aged 3-18. The school has had 2 longstanding royal patron's, the first was Queen Victoria for 70 years and the second HRH Princess Alexandra who retired in 2005 after 50 years of service. The newest patron is the Duchess of Cornwall, Camilla Parker Bowle. In 2011, the school merged with North Bridge House School at the end of the academic year (2011/12) under the management of Cognita.The GCSE pass rate, in 2008, was 99%, with 89% of pupils gaining A* to C grades and a third achieving either A* or A grades.
The London Borough of Camden has consistently suffered severe congestion because of parents ferrying their children to and from school by car. However, The Royal School introduced a range of initiatives to help address this problem.
Dr Rashmi Patel, the appointed dentist to the school, received an MBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours in June 2004.
The school site is now used as a senior campus of North Bridge House School.
