Menorah Grammar School

Menorah Grammar School is an Independent Secondary School for boys serving the Orthodox Jewish Community of North West London. The school day is divided between "Kodesh," the study of Jewish texts, history and culture, and "Chol," the traditional Secular subjects. It is this balanced approach that defines the ethos of MGS: a school that nourishes the soul and prepares its students for life in modern Britain.

MGS pupils develop a love for Judaism and strive for excellence in all that they do. With table topping exam results and a plethora of extra-curricular activities to chose from, including fundraising activities, community volunteering and after school sports clubs, our students all have a chance to shine.We respect people from all walks of life and our diverse staff are expected to lead by example, helping to shape our leaders of tomorrow.

MGS is a Torah environment and Kodesh remains at the heart of everything we are and do, imbuing our children with Love of Torah and fear of God and good Metadata.The highlight of our week is when the older boys learn with the younger boys In partnership to share their knowledge and pass on their love of learning to the next generation. Guest Rabbonim of international renown are brought in regularly to address specific issues and to widen the horizons of us all.

We aim to provide our students with a unique first class Jewish studies and secular education within a secure, safe and caring Torah environment. All areas of school improvement are underpinned by our ethos to empower and grow our students into fine young men who will light up the future with their values, learning and commitment to family and community. Through an applied appreciation of Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural education our students will feel prepared to be active citizens in a local, national and global environment.

Together as parents and school staff we are significant adults who form a team of support and growth around your son. Through our belief and uncompromising ambition we serve your son, enabling him to emerge as a substantial young man who will impact on the world around him with a desire to excel in all he does, founded on his values, learning and commitment to family and community.

Our own Rebbes, highly respected in the community and graduates of the great yeshivas, spend one seder a day learning in kollel in our Beis Hamidrash, so that learning at Menorah remains a living, active, never-ending affair.All the boys at Menorah move on to Yeshivah after Sixth Form, and not a year goes by when we don’t receive messages of high praise and appreciation from the yeshivas for the high quality of Jewish learning and the moral fibre of the Talmidim we’ve handed on to them.

Menorah Grammar School offers a rich and varied programme of extra curricular activities. Students are provided with the opportunity to connect with their history and heritage through our international trips as well as enjoy the great outdoors with the Duke of Edinburgh programme and the Year 9 Walking Tour.

At Menorah Grammar we will harness these principles to raise aspirations and set the highest standards, encouraging your son to unlock his potential and realise his ambitions, sustained through an extensive programme of guidance that ensures talent is nurtured, learning is valued, challenge is encouraged and achievement is respected.
