Convent of Jesus and Mary Language College
Convent of Jesus and Mary Language College is a girls' Catholic secondary school in Willesden within the London Borough of Brent. It gained specialism in modern languages since 1996 and became an academy in September 2012. The school's executive headteacher is Mrs Geraldine Freear, who succeeded the previous headteacher, Dame Mary Richardson, in 2000.
==History==
The Religious of Jesus and Mary, who originated in France, were invited by Cardinal Manning to open a convent school in Willesden. The school's foundation stone was laid in 1888 and the Convent of Jesus and Mary opened as a private boarding school for girls, although boarding was scrapped at the outbreak of World War II.〔(About Us )〕 It was the first of three convent schools established by the Sisters in the present-day borough; the second convent school is now the local parish infant school.〔(CJM Catholic Infant School History )〕〔〕 During the era of the tripartite system, the convent was unique as it operated as a bilateral school offering both grammar and secondary modern streams.
During the 1950s/60s, the school went through a period of major redevelopment. In 1952, as with many Catholic schools across the country, it joined the state sector as a voluntary aided school and maintained this status until April 2012 when the school converted to an academy. A number of Catholic schools nearby were reorganised into primary/junior and infant schools and their senior pupils were all transferred to the Convent. The main Convent itself was split in two as younger pupils were transferred to the second convent school (now Convent of Jesus and Mary Infant School). It became a comprehensive in 1966 with the abolition of the tripartite system in the borough.〔(Bolton, Croot & Hicks. pp. 247-54 )〕 Today the school continues to serve the Catholic community in the borough and welcomes girls of all faiths or none.〔(July 2009 Diocesan Inspection Report )〕 The school is a diverse community with around three-quarters of the students coming from minority ethnic groups. Roughly a third of students are of Afro-Caribbean heritage or other Black backgrounds.
