WELCOME TO CANONBURY SENIOR SCHOOL

At NBH Canonbury Senior School, we create a dynamic learning environment in which all children aged 11-18, regardless of where their strengths may lie, can discover their individual path to academic success. Our students achieve outcomes way beyond starting point expectations, thriving on our personalised approach to teaching and learning within a small, close-knit school environment. Surrounded by and built on centuries-old heritage in leafy Canonbury Square, Islington, our school provides the ultimate backdrop against which young people find their True North, rigorously prepared to pursue their talents at university and in the world of work.

A TRULY UNIQUE EDUCATION

Our academic offering is designed to help every student find their own individual passion - their area of excellence - and what success looks like for them. We place each child's needs and interests at the heart of school life; our teachers are committed to understanding the individual and how they learn most effectively. Which is why our staff are actively involved in research projects with UCL and constantly probe their own practices to ensure we are following evidence-based approaches, working together with our students to achieve more than they believed possible.

UNPARALLELED CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT

A huge part of an NBH Canonbury education is each child’s personal development; we aim to equip young people with the confidence, humility and resilience to thrive in everything they do. From our incredible arts department and very own outdoor activity centre, to our embedded enrichment and wellbeing programmes, we nurture strong relationships within an inclusive community at the same time as exposing students to a world of opportunity, preparing them for a globally competitive workplace.

Get to know Mrs Charlotte Tassell-Dent, Headteacher at Canonbury Senior School since 2019!

Currently working toward her NPQEL (National Professional Qualification for Executive Leadership) , Charlotte represents lifelong learning and commitment to professional growth. This solid foundation drives her passion for creating engaging, forward-thinking education experiences that shape our students into thoughtful, confident individuals. 

Her journey began with a PGCE in Geography from the University of Portsmouth and a Master’s in Education from the University of Hertfordshire.

Beyond the classroom, Charlotte is an adventurer at heart. She loves hiking with her family, where two young explorers (aged 5 and 7) see every opportunity for bug hunting and nature stops.

Whether she’s exploring UK trails or new destinations abroad, Charlotte values the perspectives travel brings, and she’s always excited to share this with our school and in her Geography lessons!
