North London Collegiate School (NLCS) has a proud 175-year history as a pioneer in girls' education. Founded in 1850 by Frances Mary Buss, a visionary dedicated to providing girls with the same rigorous academic opportunities as boys, NLCS broke barriers from the start, offering a groundbreaking curriculum that included subjects like mathematics and sciences. This commitment empowered generations of young women to excel academically and professionally, leading the way for future leaders.
Today, NLCS continues to uphold its founding principles, fostering a culture of academic excellence, independence, and innovation. As we celebrate 175 years of progress, we remain true to our motto: "We work in hope." It’s this hope that drives us to evolve and meet the challenges of modern education, all while empowering girls through exceptional learning experiences.
We’re thrilled to celebrate our 175th Founder’s Day at the historic St Paul’s Cathedral this year. While this milestone event is invite only, we’ll soon share details on how you can join us remotely via a live stream of the service. Stay tuned to be part of this special day!
