Hillbrook School, Tooting

[LocalEditorWandsworth]

Has just had a new Ofsted report which you can read here www.hillbrookschool.org.uk/docs/OFSTED_REPORT_Feb_2014.pdf
Worth a read if any of you put it on your list - it has done very well.

Bet it still doesn't get as many applications as Belleville / Honeywell though ;-(

Interesting reading. Should move Hillbrook to the top of the list for lots of people around here, well those who aren't Catholic anyway :-), especially given the negative Ofsted that Ravenstone had recently downgrading it from Good to 'Requires Improvement'.

Really? Do you have kids their Quadrophinia or is this the local school rumour mill again?

Urgh there not their - bloody autocorrect!

Sounds like rubbish to me - any evidence?! I would imagine Ofsted might notice whether teachers usually taught there or not! This is a serious allegation and should be raised with the right people if you genuinely believe it. My lengthy experience of the wandsworth school rumour mill suggests that you should not believe too much of the madness you here on the grapevine. I have heard directly from the Wandsworh education team at the council that this is a fantastic school with an inspirational head and that seems a far more compelling source than an anonymous internet poster.

"Hear"

According to the OFSTED site, 94% of the parents asked would recommend the school to others. Presumably, they weren't actually parents but staff and governors in disguise .

Quadrophinia - do you have any idea how OFSTED inspections work? The school gets virtually no notice, inspectors go through everything, talk to parents etc... How would they not spot the staff were ringers.
