Welcome

The Holy Family Technology College is a very popular mixed secondary school with just under 1100 pupils aged 11-19. We are a specialist Technology College with excellent resources for teaching across the curriculum. All pupils are offered every opportunity to expand their knowledge through after school and homework clubs, school visits, etc.

 

Please take some time to read through our exam results page. A recent article from the Evening Standard showed our pupils' progress from primary school through to GCSE and A level results to be amongst the best in London.

 

The College has very close partnerships with parents through the Friends of Holy Family, helping to reinforce the Catholic ethos and the partnership between home, school and parish.

 

The achievements of our students and staff have been praised in a recent Ofsted report. The whole report can be read by downloading it from this link, while the following extract from that report summarises the main points:

 

 Extract from Ofsted report May 2008

"Holy Family is a good school in which many parents have great confidence. The good teaching and support enable students to make good progress and do well in their examinations and tests. ....... All groups of students make good progress. Students' personal development and well-being are good. Their enjoyment of school is reflected in the outstanding attendance in the main school. Students' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development is good ".

 

We are fortunate to have a thriving sixth form centre and we accept applications to our sixth form from our own Yr 11 students and also from students from other schools across the borough who would like to experience their sixth form education in a school based sixth form with a religious ethos.

 

We hope you find our website both informative and interesting.
