There are three state secondary schools serving the N8 Crouch End area. [[Highgate Wood School]] in Montenotte Road is a nine form entry mixed school. Highgate Wood School was the senior school to the former Crouch End School based on the corner of Wolseley Road and Park Road, opposite the Maynard Arms. [[Hornsey School for Girls]] in Inderwick Road is the only single sex school in N8. In Hornsey, there is the [[Greig City Academy]] (formerly St David and St Katherines). Further away Heartlands High School which lies between Wood Green and Alexandra Palace was opened by Haringey in 2010; despite not being in Crouch End it is close enough to provide additional provision. [[St Thomas More Catholic School, Wood Green]] is the only [[Roman Catholic]] secondary school in the [[London Borough of Haringey]].<ref name=Thom>[http://www.stthomasmoreschool.org.uk/ Official Site].
