Yavneh College is a co-educational, Jewish, secondary and sixth form school. A comprehensive with five-form entry for ages 11–18 yrs, it is part of the Yavneh College Academy Trust.

## History

[edit]

When founded, the school was led by headteacher Dr. Dena Coleman, who died in June 2013 just a few weeks before her planned retirement.[1]

In September 2013, Mr Spencer Lewis took over the role of headteacher, having previously had the same role at King Solomon High School in Barkingside.[2] The school previously had achieved specialist school status as a Business and Enterprise College (before converting to an academy).[3]
