JFS (formerly known as the Jews' Free School[2] and later Jewish Free School[3][4][5]) is a Jewish mixed comprehensive school in Kenton, North London, England and was founded in 1732. Amongst its early supporters was the writer and philanthropist Charlotte Montefiore.[6] At one time it was the largest Jewish school in the world, with more than 4,000 pupils.[7]
