St Andrew the Apostle
Greek Orthodox School
Our school
St Andrew the Apostle Greek Orthodox School opens to its founding Year 7 this September 2013.
The school will serve all students in Barnet and Enfield as well as the wider Greek Orthodox community in North London.
The school is based on the Christian faith and moral principles of the Greek Orthodox Church, but open to students of all faiths and none.
Staff Appointments
We have now appointed all of our founding teaching staff. The headteacher, Robert Ahearn, has now been joined by Assistant Headteachers Michael Vassiliou (English and Greek) and Mike Michael (Science) as well as Head of Maths Valerie Quashie.
In addition we have appointed teachers of French, Spanish, Greek, Latin, Classics and Humanities, PE and Games, Music and Technology.
These staff were all vigorously assessed in the classroom by the school's Education Trust (RET) and Mr Ahearn who described them as "an exceptionally academic and capable group of teachers committed to the vision and ethos of St Andrew the Apostle."
Our aims
St Andrew the Apostle aims to:
- Deliver a broad curriculum, academic excellence and exceptional progress across the ability range
- Foster a spirit of kindness, tolerance and responsibility which allows each student to grow as an individual and a community member
- Encourage more students to progress to university to study maths, sciences and the classical subjects
