Stirrups36 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Elmhurst has just had its latest Ofsted report published. Outstanding work... Literally! http://bit.ly/1Q2OEYe 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Picturesinthefirelight Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 (edited) It might just be worth mentioning that this inspection report is for the post 16 upper school only as is the case with at least one other vocational school whose report is due out very soon. An excellent report all round. Edited December 10, 2015 by Picturesinthefirelight 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picturesinthefirelight Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 I didn't know Tring had been inspected recently too. Hammond were inspected about a week after Elmhurst - seems like vocational schools are being targeted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picturesinthefirelight Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 No, Janet. Hammonds hasn't been officially published yet by OFSTED, it usually takes a few weeks & the school isn't allowed to release details until it is officially signed off.

Picturesinthefirelight Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I don't think so kiwi. They are looking carefully at vocational schools in the light of recent allegations/convictions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mae989 Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 I am sure Hammond got outstanding too. I am news phobic, what allegations/convictions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Picturesinthefirelight Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 A director of music at an MDS music school was convicted of a string of child sexualoffences. He was highly respected. I actually own books of children's singing Excercises written by him that cause me a dilemma every time I look at them & dh has been in a course with him & once sat drinking tea in his kitchen so it really brought it home to us.

Lindsay Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 That person taught my husband also pictures. He was at chets with the victim who committed suicide after giving evidence against him. The pattern of incidents which came out in alumni discussions after that conviction was unbelievably shocking to me. I would support any investigation or discussion which could stop anything similar happening elsewhere. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
