Congratulations to all the staff and pupils at Goose Green Primary and Nursery School for coming out of Special Measures. The news is unofficial until OFSTED publish their report, but this is excellent news and I am sure the school would like to thank everyone in the local community who continues to support this wonderful local school.

The head, teachers and pupils have worked so hard they really deserve this. As a parent of a child thriving at this school I am delighted. prdarling; you hit the nail on the head, this isn't just good news for GG but for the whole of ED to have another great school for our children and we are looking onward and upward; there will be a new Sure Start building on site which will provide resources for pre school children and their families. Watch this space - we are on the up.

Come and celebrate and show your support at our carnival and fair on 10th July on Goose Green which is always an expression of pride but will be extra special this year.

Thank you to all the posters on this thread. ED - we are feeling the love!!

Well done to everyone involved in this. As said above this really is good news for those at the school and also for East Dulwich as a whole. Hopefully now next year parents living in the surrounding roads will happily put GG as their top prefernce on those applications.
I just got back late last night from a trip to Amsterdam. It was a working trip to meet up international partners of a project I'm involved with around youth engagement in leadership and also, I took part in a Deep Democracy conflict resolution training course!. Anyway, much we were discussed at our meeting and workshop was about needing to come together as communities - both internationally AND in specific locality. So it was wonderful to come back and find out this news about my son's school which feels like a wonderful case study in community building - and wonderful to see the forum full of congratulations from others in the area. Wonderful!

My son has been at Goose Green for almost three years now, loves his school, his teachers and his friends there, and is doing really well.


I'm totally delighted that we are out of OFSTED special measures, however, just want to say that a lot of kids were actually happy and doing well when the school went into special measures and during the two years we were in - so don't judge a school just by that label (and of course I don't mean to say there weren't things that needed improving and attention and I'm very happy that was picked up and actioned).


Hope you'll all come down to Goose Green on Saturday 10th July to celebrate with us!

Well done indeed. Having been out of special measures for well over a year (as can be seen from the start date of this thread) Goose Green school has seen it's 3rd year on year rise in sats results putting it well above most local schools last year and with even better results this.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
