Ofsted Insights
From Ofsted's September 2025 inspection report.
What This School Does Well
The school creates a happy community where boys thrive academically and develop strong character. Teachers are specialists who know their pupils well and provide excellent support, with consistently high-quality work and strong GCSE results. The school goes beyond academics to build resilience and leadership through activities like residential trips, business incubator projects, and educational visits that bring learning to life.
Key Strengths
- Ambitious and broad curriculum with strong knowledge progression across subjects like biology and geography
- High-quality pupil work and high GCSE pass rates preparing pupils well for next stages of learning
- Excellent behaviour, high attendance rates, and a respectful school culture where pupils are eager to learn
- Well-organised personal development opportunities that build character and resilience
- Clear focus on British values, keeping pupils safe online, and supporting career aspirations
Areas for Improvement
- Some classroom activities do not help pupils develop deep understanding of subjects as effectively as they could - pupils sometimes find work too easy or move to challenging work too quickly
- Oversight and governance systems are not fully developed, meaning school leaders' actions are not monitored thoroughly enough by the proprietor body
- Safeguarding records do not accurately reflect all actions taken, and processes for pupils joining or leaving mid-year are not rigorous enough
Safeguarding
Safeguarding arrangements are effective with pupils knowing who to speak to about concerns and staff receiving appropriate training, though the proprietor body has not assured itself thoroughly enough that policies are being followed and records are accurate.
Extracurricular Activities
Cooking club, debate club, Arabic club, incubator club (business pitching), camping and hiking in Wales, visits to Houses of Parliament, leadership roles as sports captains and school council members
Tarbiyyah Secondary School for Boys is a happy, tight-knit community where pupils and staff work together well and learning is encouraged through high expectations. The school has been rated as Good across all areas of inspection.
