Requires improvement
“Pupils’ mutual respect, and their willingness to help each other out, underpins the strong feeling of community at The King David High School. Pupils are taught to be optimistic about their futures. They learn how to find solutions to the challenges that they may encounter. Pupils, and students in the sixth form, benefit from a rich, broad curriculum that sets them up well to accomplish their future goals. Pupils enjoy their learning. Most pupils live up to their teachers’ high expectations of achievement and attain strong academic outcomes. Students in the sixth form achieve impressive A-level results. … Pockets of pupils’ disengaged behaviour go unchallenged, and some pupils are late to lessons. .. Quality of education, Personal development, Leadership and management, and Sixth form provision were deemed to be good.”
