Ofsted report
As you will read, we continue to be a good school with two aspects of the inspection judgements deemed to be ‘Outstanding’. The first is the superb Personal Development our students receive, which includes opportunities such as; our bespoke Healthy Living and form time curriculums, careers guidance, our enrichment and electives programme, clubs, trips, DofE, and the CCF. The second area is the exemplary Sixth Form provision we provide for all of our Post-16 students.
We are immensely proud of the wealth of positive aspects of our school highlighted in the report and would like to thank the whole school community for their continued support and positive engagement with our journey.
Even though we are proud of how this report shows the best of Southfield, we are not complacent. It goes without saying that everyone involved with the school wants to continue moving the school forward, positively, with high expectations across the board.
