Northwood School is a comprehensive school of about 800 students, ages 11-19, and became a Business & Enterprise College in September 2004. Northwood School is located in the northern part of the London Borough of Hillingdon. The school was opened in 1934 as "metroland" expanded. This was the suburban belt built up up around the Metropolitain Railway. It is a thriving school serving the local community of Northwood and accords a high priority to maintaining what we regard as a deserved reputation for being a caring school.
