Ofsted Insights

What This School Does Well

The school creates an excellent learning environment where students feel safe and cared for. Teachers are highly qualified experts in their subjects who set high expectations and use skilled questioning to help students understand topics deeply. The broad curriculum develops not just academic knowledge but also critical thinking, debating skills, and personal development.

Key Strengths

  • Teaching is mostly good with an increasing proportion of outstanding lessons, supported by a very effective teacher training programme
  • Students achieve well over time with particularly strong performance in modern and ancient Greek, mathematics, and English
  • Excellent pastoral care and school policies create a safe, family atmosphere where students attend regularly and behave well
  • All students gained entry to Greek or English universities in the last four years
  • Teachers are highly qualified and use effective questioning to match students' different needs

Areas for Improvement

  • Not enough outstanding teaching to enable all students to make outstanding progress
  • Limited specialist facilities restrict achievement in science and physical education
  • Leadership lacks authority to check teaching quality and take action to improve it to outstanding level
  • Systems need to be more robust to ensure managers understand all independent school requirements in England

Safeguarding

Students' safety and good behaviour are promoted effectively through strong pastoral care and policies and procedures that ensure their welfare, health and safety.

Extracurricular Activities

Learning support, additional after-school sessions, careers advice, UK A-level courses, extra-curricular activities

Greek Secondary School of London is a good school that provides education following the Greek National Curriculum supplemented by UK A-level courses. Most students make good progress, with some making outstanding progress, and all students in the last four years passed their final examinations and gained university entry.
