About us
Welcome to Our Website
I feel very fortunate to be the Headteacher of a very special community school.
Barlby is an outstanding, happy school where all of the children and adults aim to succeed. Our children are guided and supported to aim high and achieve by a talented and committed staff team. Everyone here at Barlby aims high and knows how to have fun in their learning.
We are very proud of our many achievements and we are always busy looking for further opportunities to learn and grow together. Partnership with parents, governors and the community is central to our work as we all share a common goal: to nurture a sense of life long learning.
Thank you for taking the time to find out about our school and enjoy exploring our website.

Headteacher
As a community schools in Westminster and North Kensington, we proudly serve socially and culturally diverse local communities. Our schools are inclusive places, in which pupils are treated as individuals and learn to become confident, creative and strong members of their community.
Barlby has started to work closely with the other community schools in Westminster to form The Westminster Community Schools Partnership. We also work closely with Golborne & Maxilla Nursery School.
Our partnership brings together services through our family hubs, from pre-birth to 25, our nursery schools and nursery classes in our schools, special schools, specialist resource provisions and our community primary schools. Collectively we serve and support almost three thousand children and their families within Westminster and beyond.
Through the Westminster Community Schools Partnership, our mission is to provide resilience in the ever-changing landscape of education whilst at the same time protecting the identities and individual characters of each school and setting. We will do this first and foremost by engaging our school communities directly to complement our vision with their aspirations for a world-class education. But also, through increasing links with our neighbours, professional colleagues from social care and health and through working collaboratively with businesses and charities to remove the barriers that impact negatively upon pupils’ achievement.
This publication ‘Westminster Community Schools: Together for Stronger Schools and Communities’ highlights some of the exemplary practices taking place in our community schools that aim to strengthen and support our children and families. It also lays the foundations for continued collaboration between our schools and services to ensure that we remain an ambitious and forward thinking partnership.
