Admissions
The trustees of the Dame Alice Owen Foundation are the Worshipful Company of Brewers. It is more commonly known as Owen's. In terms of exam results, the school has been one of the best state-school schools in the country for some time now, with over 95% of students receiving 10 A*-C grades.
The school is also partially selective by means of an entrance examination. 32.5% of places are offered for academic ability and 5% for musical ability, and 10% of places are reserved for children living in Islington. Students are drawn from a wide area and the school is heavily over-subscribed.
It is situated in the south of Potters Bar, just north of the M25, and within earshot of the South Mimms services, near to the west and near to Bridgefoot Lane.
