A new school.
Two languages.
One wonderful beginning.
Welcome to Saint Jérôme Church of England Bilingual School. Discover a warm, ambitious English and French education in the heart of Harrow.
Come and discover
Saint Jérôme.
Choosing your child's first school is one of those decisions that stays with you. A website can tell you a great deal, but there is no substitute for walking through the doors and experiencing a school for yourself.
At Saint Jérôme, children grow up as part of a diverse, multilingual and multicultural community, learning in English and French and developing the knowledge, confidence and character they need for the future.
If you are considering Saint Jérôme for Reception in September 2027, I would be delighted to welcome you for a visit. Come and meet us, see the school in action and ask the questions that matter to your family.
