Professor Margaret Maden (born 16 April 1940) is a British educationalist who was Headteacher of Islington Green School in Inner London from 1975 to 1983. She is said to have led the school from being "on the brink of closure" to becoming over-subscribed. During her tenure, members of the school's choir sang, initially unbeknownst to her, on Pink Floyd's number one hit: "Another Brick in the Wall Part II".
