A New Begining | 1939

Saint Nicholas School was established in 1939 in a group of buildings set in the heart of Churchgate Street, near Old Harlow. The school quickly built up a reputation for its outstanding pastoral care, excellent behaviour and high academic standards.

Moving to Hillingdon House | 1977

A move to nearby Hillingdon House (originally an Edwardian country house) in 1977 and a substantial building programme in recent years allowed for gradual expansion of the school to its present size of 500 boys and girls aged 3 months to 16 years old.
