Just had a long chat with a friend who is having problems with The Charter - feel a little concerned as she is such a positive person who has always supported our local state schools - has anyone else had issues with the school? - should state that I don't have a child there and have no personal issue, just appalled with their approach to pastoral care and lack of communication

I really think it depends what you are comparing it with. Communication falls away naturally at secondary school and state schools are not so well resourced as private schools. We did not get into Charter school, but from speaking with friends there i wouold say its communication is better than some other state secondaries by quite abit- although the student can be the breakdown in communication sometimes.

Hi hilili,


Obviously I can only comment on my own experience but my son is in year 7 at Charter and I have no problems at all, Infact I am very impressed with the comunication from the school, We quite often get texts and letters in the post regarding various matters and always feel very 'in the loop' so to speak.

In my experience the communication was very good about general matters but not so with individual student problems. I have no children there at the moment but will be starting again with year 7 in September. I have reservations about going back to Charter but I have heard from current parents that things have improved.

    • Labour have changed a number of things overnight.   1. VAT on school fees - this has resulted in 25,000 moving until state education. 2. Increasing NICs adding billions to the cost of going to work. 3. Introducing the Employment Rights Bill causing employers to stop hiring. This and item 2 have added 100,000 people to the unemployment scrapheap. These are also causing businesses to relocate further harming the economy. 4. Scrapping all the small boats deterrents meaning 60,000 illegal migrants have arrived in small boats since they were elected. 5. Dishing out huge public sector payroses with no conditions so we have a massively increased payroll and doctors etc arestill going out on strike. 6.changed IHT and non domicile tax rules causing 16,500 millionaires to leave the UK and stop paying any tax here at all forever. 7. Alongside 6, leaving the budget up until an historically late period after the last budget has caused a house price crash, killing the market and decimating government stamp duty receipts. 8. Their profligate borrowing (£100bn extra in just one year) to fund all their lavish promises means the government can now only borrow at the highest ever yields on records. They are more beholden to the bond markets than Liz Truss was. 9. The rate of inflation has doubled under this government. It was a healthy 2% when they came in. For most of the last year, as a result of all of the above it is now nearly 4%.   These are all decisions the Labour government took that have immediate cause and effect.  Its no good harking back to 15 years ago. The current administration was gifted the fastest growing economy in the G7 and within 15 months they have destroyed it.    And things are only going to get worse this winter.      
    • I use Autocar Repair in West Dulwich.. been using them for over 20 years. Excellent service… 
    • A lot to agree with here - don’t get me started on Irish people complaining about immigration! - but that final paragraph is once again a cop out  there’s a lot of extreme right wing money stirring up the division that people are feeling - but there is zero excuse for handing power to these people. We live in a democracy and if we have enough people willing to give it up then judging those people foolish enough to do so is not only something that will happen, it is something that the rest of us should be morally compelled to do  if someone wouldn’t “normally” vote for a racist party yet somehow will do so because they hear someone like me saying that would be bad, then you better believe I’m judging them
    • We can't use our kitchen for a while and so looking for an air fryer to plug the gap. Please let me know if you have a good one in working order.  07702 305 310 Thanks
