Schools in Enfield, London
Granted market rights in the thirteenth century, Enfield Town forms the historic core of Greater London's northernmost borough, which extends from the Lee Valley in the east to the remnant woodland of Enfield Chase in the west. Around 334,000 people live across the borough today.
Piccadilly line stations at Southgate connect the southern neighbourhoods to central London, while Great Northern trains from New Southgate reach King's Cross in around twenty minutes. Monken Hadley is among the most sought-after pockets for primary school catchments in the northern reaches, with Palmers Green drawing families competing for places along the southern residential belt. Southgate's leafy streets add to the school-competitive character of the borough's western corridor.
