Hi, You have got some of your data incorrect London mix... Need to ensure you write the correct data!! It would also be interesting to note that this is 2012 data and looking at the previous years Heber is definitely improving year on year. I've said it before ... Tables are there to be manipulated . My friend has a statement child and even though the child can't do the sats there non results will be included!!! How farcical is that!!! Wonder how many schools get rid of children that they know won't help them meet their targets??!!!! Table mania gone mad and people believe the hype! If your child is happy and improving what could be better?

Hear hear Camudgeon!

I do agree that you go with what you feel to be right, just wish would not sabotage these choices by unfair reports. If there no ofsteds and only intervention at a local level there would be a lot more happier people about... And this would put a stop to crazy house prices in particular roads around certain schools!!!!

As we all know stats can be read in many ways, some of my friends have children who go to other local Dulwich and west Dulwich schools... We have compared our children's end of year books and Heber was rated rated the best in terms of quality and level of marking. Other friends who are teachers also agreed that my daughters books had such amazing work in, both maths and English... And believe me, dare I say it, she is an 'average' child. I believe there are some dark forces at work and it's not at the school.... A big building overlooking the Thames!

Hi, checked last Ofsted and was under same management...though think not sure about early years. Like the letter from the Chair... Good to see school are fighting decision. Completely unfair.

I can't believe it!! It's such a brilliant school. The teachers I've encountered are great. Heard there is a big political agenda going on in Education at the moment...
