What This School Does Well
The school has made some improvements to teaching about certain protected characteristics and has implemented regular discussions among leaders to share information about pupil welfare. However, these improvements remain incomplete and the school continues to fall short of legal requirements in several key areas.
Key Strengths
- Some improvements made to teaching about protected characteristics including disability, gender and race
- School leaders now hold regular discussions to share information about pupil welfare
- Some work surfaces in food technology areas have been cleaned
Areas for Improvement
- School has not taught pupils about sexual orientation and gender reassignment as required by law
- Damaged flooring in classrooms presents tripping hazards and unsafe storage of tools in woodwork area
- Recording systems for pupil welfare concerns lack sufficient detail and rigour
- Food preparation areas remain unhygienic with dirty surfaces and tea towels not laundered frequently enough
- Reading support resources and schemes of work are inadequate
- School leaders lack sufficient understanding of independent school standards
Safeguarding
Safeguarding systems are not effective - recording of welfare concerns still lacks sufficient rigour and detail, and the school has not acted quickly enough to address identified health and safety hazards such as damaged flooring.
Etz Chaim Boys School is an orthodox Jewish boys' school in Salford with 245 pupils aged 11-17. The school does not meet independent school standards, with significant concerns remaining unaddressed since the previous inspection in September 2024.
