Testimonials

Very helpful and informative. Responsive to queries. I have only been working with the school since October 2024 but already I believe a good working relationship has been established. Open and honest communication.

Natasha Prigg, Bexley SEND Case Worker

I have spoken to learners on numerous occasions where Gino Leroy has also been present. I strongly feel that he is an excellent communicator, who works with me (Police) extremely well in talking with learners as and when they have come to notice for engaging in or being on the periphery of criminality. Every time I have attended the school, I have been impressed.

PC Guv (School Police Liaison Officer)

You are doing incredible work with these very vulnerable young people, and it was lovely to see not only their enthusiasm, but also that of the staff.

Ofsted October 2022

Behaviour around the school and in lessons is calm and students engage well with their teachers. Students said their relationships with teachers are good and that they feel they are listened to if they have a problem; they explain what is right and what is wrong. Students said issues are dealt with quickly and fairly.
