(b) St Michael's Convent Grammar School The school was founded as St. Michael's Convent in 1908 by the Sisters of the Poor Child Jesus and is now under their trusteeship. Under the Education Act 1944, in 1958 St. Michael's became a voluntary aided grammar school to complement the all-boys Finchley Catholic Grammar School (now Finchley Catholic High School). When the Barnet LEA abolished the tripartite system, St. Michael's retained its grammar school status.
