We are a small and friendly one-form entry school in New Barnet set in extensive grounds with spacious classrooms and excellent outdoor facilities on the edge of Hadley Wood. At Livingstone, we are one big family because although it is a school, it's also a community where we feel secure, valued and grateful for the time we have or will spend there.
We all contribute to this as the teachers are kind and dedicated, planning enjoyable, creative lessons while the children do their best to listen and learn. The minute you step through the doors of the school, you feel loved and in the right place, that is why new students or visitors are warmly welcomed with open arms.

Services
We are a small and friendly one-form entry school committed to giving every child the opportunity to fulfil his or her potential. We work closely with parents to provide a supportive, stimulating and happy environment for every child. Proudly, we are also an inclusive school with specialist provision for children on the autistic spectrum; they are a valued part of our school community.
All prospective parents are welcome to visit the school for a tour by contacting the school office to arrange an appointment on 020 8449 2592. Admission into our Nursery can be arranged directly via our school office. The Nursery offers both morning and afternoon sessions, additional paid sessions and the '30 Hour Nursery Provision' for working parents.
The Pupil Premium Grant, which is additional to main school funding, is allocated to schools to support the learning of these children. This includes pupils who are known to be eligible for free school meals at any point in the last six years, have been adopted, have a "Special Guardianship" or have been 'looked after' by the Local Authority continuously for more than six months.
At Livingstone School we believe that every child matters. We recognise that every individual within the school is important and that his or her needs should be met. We recognise that for inclusion to be successful some children's needs may be different and they will need to be educated accordingly.
The DfE and Ofsted define the more able in terms of those whose progress significantly exceeds age related expectations. We also include those who have the capacity to achieve or perform at the very highest levels and consequently require more challenging learning. Within this there will be a small number of children who show exceptional abilities in one or more subjects in the school curriculum.
