It's a popular Church school (note therefore the admissions policies - 2 for children with special needs, 35 for Christians and 23 open places, so get pious if you're not already, and want one of the 35...). Note also belief comes above siblings here. 234 applications for 60 places last year (slightly more than the previous year). Ofsted - good. 72% KS2 Level 4 performance in 2014 (below Southwark average of 81%).

It's a fab school. I've had two daughters go through recently, now in yrs 7 & 10 at secondary. Loads of teaching staff and support staff and very friendly office staff. Loads of days trips related to topics, which change each half-term. Two residential trips - Michael Morpurgo Farms for City Kids in yr 5 and PGL in year 6. Church service for whole school and parents / carers etc on the morning of the final day of each 3 terms (not compulsory for parents). Various after school clubs. A breakfast club. Great pastoral care. Children mix throughout the years esp at playtime and external play leaders to lead organised games at playtimes. Good teaching standard. Music, art, IT and French all focused on. Have a look at the website and twitter feed to see all that goes on - it's busy.

Hi


I can second Mrs TP's view!

We came from another school as eldest transferred in in year 2. We have three children there at present and they love it. My children have various abilities and these are being met. Plus they try really hard to keep parents in the loop. Weekly headteacher newsletters, each year they arrange a "meet the teacher" for parents and termly curriculum events so you can go into class and join them in an activity. We had some issues with eldest about sport and they listened and responded really quickly, all sorted within a couple of weeks. Also, just generally really nice relationships between staff, parents and kids. All good from our perspective

    • Another recommendation for Niko. Great communication, top guy, and super reliable and skilled - all at a fair price. Takes a lot of care in what he does and talks you through everything. 
    • Some foxes are very tame. The foxes that live near the electricity sub-station thing on the corner of Calton and Woodwarde will happily walk up to you/passed you. They are some of the best looking foxes around so clearly being well-fed - glorious coats and bushy tails but interested in humans and keen to engage/be fed rather than being scared.
    • Let’s not all get scared of the foxes now. Most likely explanation is protecting its den or association with food. We have foxes, and cats and they are no bother to each other. The fox will leave when the cats are out.   
    • I remember seeing something a few years ago on TV about a fox that was actually biting through people's shopping / takeaway food bags.  It was situated in an alleyway.  Not in London.  Very interesting in how the  urban foxes brain development has  been affected by their surroundings.   Not an exact quote from Darwin.  It's the adaptable that survive / not the strongest or the most intelligent.   I would be worried if a fox came close me.   Because they might be after my fur babies and they carry a lot of nasties.   Although they look beautiful from a distance or on a 🎄 card.
