Welcome to FCHS
On behalf of everyone at Finchley Catholic High School may I extend a very warm welcome to our website and to thank you for your interest.

The school has eighty two years of history (which has seen two former schools, 'Challoner' and 'Finchley Catholic Grammar' merge to become Finchley Catholic High School), we have an inclusive and community-focused ethos of which we are very proud. Since becoming a specialist status business and enterprise college in 2002, we have worked hard to increase our collaboration with a wide range of other educational institutions, business and community organisations on a local, national and a international scale.

Of all our initiatives, the most successful to date is with St. Michael's Catholic Grammar School , enabling students at both schools to have access to over thirty post-16 courses, which is greater than any other sixth form in Barnet.

In everything we do, our priority lies with the academic, physical, spiritual, moral and social development of our students, encompassed within the teaching of the key values inherent in our Catholic faith.

Whether you are a student (former, current or future), parent, governor or partner from business or the community, I hope there will be something of interest here for you. Click on the site map links on the left of the page to visit the areas that interest you. Many thanks once again.
