The London Mechina

The London Mechina is an independent boys' school located at Woodside Park Synagogue on Woodside Park Road in Barnet, London. The school caters to Orthodox Jewish boys, with most pupils being of sixth-form age (15-18 years old), though it also serves younger secondary students aged 11-13. The school opened in September 2024 following a successful Ofsted inspection in March 2024, where it was found to be likely to meet all independent school standards. The curriculum includes discrete lessons in PSHE education, a planned programme of assemblies, and regular enrichment trips and visiting speakers, designed to provide high-quality education with emphasis on spiritual, moral, social and cultural development.
