What This School Does Well
The school has taken steps to improve child protection training coverage by training additional staff members. Staff have received recent child protection update training and are confident in identifying obvious safeguarding concerns. The school has demonstrated some commitment to addressing premises issues through renovation work including rewiring and installation of new fire alarm systems.
Key Strengths
- Staff have received child protection training and additional cover has been implemented across the school day
- Some revisions have been made to child protection and recruitment policies
- School leaders are taking some steps to address premises issues, including installing new fire alarm systems
Areas for Improvement
- Safeguarding procedures are inadequate with incomplete and out-of-date staff recruitment records and missing vetting checks
- Child protection policy has serious shortcomings and staff are not familiar with the most recent government guidance
- Premises are severely overcrowded with more than 100 pupils above registered capacity
- Buildings are in poor state of repair with dirty conditions, damaged flooring and walls requiring plastering
- Fire safety risk assessments are outdated and recommendations have not been implemented
- No suitable medical room or facilities for sick or unwell pupils
Safeguarding
Safeguarding arrangements are inadequate due to poor staff recruitment practices, incomplete vetting checks, shortcomings in child protection policies, and unsafe premises conditions.
Bnois Jerusalem Girls School is an independent school that failed to meet independent school standards following a progress monitoring inspection in September 2014. The inspection found inadequate progress in implementing an action plan to address serious safeguarding, health and safety, and premises concerns identified in a December 2013 material change visit.
