The sixth form is part of the Crossways Consortium with two other schools. Some students follow courses at Lewisham College. The school has grown in size since the last inspection as it is increasingly popular and the admissions number went up in 1996. Fifty six per cent of pupils are boys, who also outnumber girls in the sixth form. Over half the pupils are eligible for free school meals - well above average. About one-third, a very high percentage, speak English as an additional language but very few of them are at an early stage of learning English. Well over half the pupils are from minority ethnic backgrounds that include Black African, Black Caribbean and Chinese. It is a truly mixed cultural school. Just under one-third is on the register of special educational needs, 60 of whom have statements – both above average percentages. The majority of pupils comes from the local area which is a deprived area of Lewisham. Standards on entry are below average but they have been lower in previous years. Pupil turnover is higher than in many schools. The school is involved in many initiatives which include a mini Education Action Zone, Excellence in Cities, a high focus on citizenship and several others related to mentoring and supporting young people to prepare for adult life. In a few subjects the school has had great difficulty appointing specialist teachers. HOW GOOD THE SCHOOL IS This is a good school that has several impressive features, particularly the successful cultural and racial mix of the school community and its citizenship initiative. Since the last inspection teaching has improved. The percentages of pupils attaining average standards at the end of Year 9 and in GCSEs, and standards in the sixth form have gone up. The sixth form has grown. Leadership and management are very good. The school receives an above average income per pupil that is spent wisely to provide good value for money. What the school does well · Excellent provision for pupils’ cultural development which underpins the very good relationships, racial harmony and equal opportunities which permeate school life. · An exciting, developing programme to promote citizenship. This, and the very good course for personal, social and health education, support the very good provision for pupils’ moral and social development. · During the inspection teaching was very good in almost one in three lessons in Years 7 to 11. It was excellent in thirteen lessons. It is very good overall in the sixth form. · Above average GCSE results in art, food, textiles, drama, English literature, geography, history, ICT statistics and music. High standards in textiles, art graphics, mathematics and performing arts in the sixth form. · Very good leadership and management. The headteacher, senior and middle managers work effectively and successfully to move the school forward. · Very good links and work within the community. These, combined with the school’s strong pastoral support systems, mean that pupils are very well cared for. What could be improved · Standards, particularly in science, resistant materials and graphics in Years 7 to 11 and GCSE English language and physical education. · The small percentage of lessons where teaching, or elements of teaching, are unsatisfactory. · Punctuality and attendance, particularly in Years 9 to 11. · Information and communication technology (ICT) is not used enough in several subjects, especially science, design and technology and music. The areas for improvement will form the basis of the governors’ action plan. HOW THE SCHOOL HAS IMPROVED SINCE ITS LAST INSPECTION (November 1996) Deptford Green School - 7 The governing body, headteacher and senior management team worked hard to address the eight issues in the last report. Improvement has been good. Standards have gone up, more in mathematics than in English. The senior management team is effective and well structured. Target setting, the production and analysis of data, monitoring of teaching and pupils’ progress, have all been organised better. They have contributed to the significant rise in the percentage of pupils attaining five GCSE grades A*-C. Although the number of computers has increased there are still several subjects that do not use them enough. The curriculum is examined carefully each year and vocational qualifications have been introduced successfully. The provision for pupils’ spiritual development is more coherent and statutory requirements for religious education are met in the main school, but not the sixth form; neither is there a daily act of collective worship. STANDARDS The table shows the standards achieved by 16 and 18 year olds based on average point scores in GCSE and A level/AS level examinations. compared with Key similar Performance in: all schools schools well above average A above average B 1999 2000 2001 2000 average C below average D GCSE examinations D D D A well below average E A-levels/AS-levels n/a n/a n/a n/a - Deptford Green student’s results, separate from those for the consortium, were not available.

Results are well above those attained in similar schools (those with a similar percentage taking free school meals).

  • May 2017 Open Letter to the Prime Minister Theresa May
    May 2017 Open letter to the Prime Minister Theresa May, As leaders of education across the London Borough of Lewisham, we want to draw attention to the damage being caused to the education of children in our schools by the reduction in funding that is available for us to spend directly on their education. We are concerned that your pledge in your manifesto will be of little help to our schools, children and young people. We are aware of the regularly stated position of your government asserting that you are putting more money than ever before into schools. What you fail to point out is that schools are having to use an increasing proportion of their budgets to cover rising costs relating to national insurance and pension contributions, and escalating costs of services, leaving an ever decreasing balance for us to deliver the quality of education that we and our staff teams are committed to delivering. Even if per pupil funding levels for primary and secondary schools are frozen at current rates, anticipated inflationary pressures over the next three years mean an 8% real terms cut in schools spending power which will impact on our classrooms. Maintained nursery schools in Lewisham are already losing nearly 36% of their funding with the introduction of the Early Years funding formula in April this year. For all of our schools this level of cuts is untenable and will impact directly on the quality of education delivered to our young people. Whilst in all schools we will do our best to meet our statutory duties, the quality of this provision, and our ability to meet the individual needs of different groups will be severely compromised.

    Proposal to expand Deptford Green School by adding a sixth form Equalities Impact Assessment June 2011 1 Contents 1 Introduction 2 Management of the EIA 3 Identification of the aims and objectives 4 Scope / focus of the EIA and assessment of relevance 5 Relevant data and research 6 Consultation 7 Assessment of impact and outcomes 8 Action Plan 9 Formal agreement 10 Publication of results 11 Monitoring 2 1. Introduction This impact assessment was undertaken using the methodology and approach set out in Lewisham’s Equalities Impact Assessment (EIA) toolkit. Every new service or one undergoing organisational change or review requires the undertaking of such an assessment to ensure that the proposals address equalities and that implementation meets both the aspirations set out in the Council’s equalities policies AND statutory requirements. This assessment has considered the content of the proposals and analysed whether these are likely to have a positive or negative impact on different groups within the local community. Having made this assessment it sets out the action to be taken to prevent direct and indirect discrimination and positively promote positive and harmonious community relations. 2. Management of the EIA This assessment was undertaken by the Children and Young People’s Pupil Place Manager. The methodology used for this EIA has been to: - Collate and analyse relevant data in relation to the proposal - Review relevant consultations undertaken on the proposal that relate to equalities - Present a draft EIA to the Directorate Management Team of the Children & Young People’s directorate for recommendation of changes 3. Identification of aims and objectives The overall aim of the proposal is for Deptford Green to add a sixth form with 100 students per cohort (initial 100 for year 12 then 100 for progression and recruitment to year 13 in 2012) will increase total capacity of the school to 1500 by September 2013 (dependant on retention of year 12 – 13 from September 2012).

  • Lewisham Determined Admissions Criteria 2022-2023
    Appendix A Lewisham’s determined admissions criteria for nursery schools and nursery classes in community primary schools (children starting nursery during the academic year 2022/23) Where there is over-subscription, places will be offered to: 1. A looked after child’ or a child who was previously looked after but immediately after being looked after became subject to an adoption, child arrangements, or special guardianship order. A looked after child is a child who is a) in the care of a local authority, or b) being provided with accommodation by a local authority in the exercise of their social services functions (see definition in Section 22(1) of the Children Act 1989). Details must be supplied by the allocated social worker or foster carer. * it is expected that a revised School Admissions Code, expected early in 2021, will revise the definition of a looked after child to include children who have been adopted from care from outside of England. 2 In exceptional circumstances there is discretion to admit vulnerable children, as proposed by Lewisham’s Children Centre Criteria for Priority or Excluded (POE), on the grounds of their or their family’s severe medical or social need for that particular school and who would not otherwise qualify for admission. The application must be supported by a letter from a hospital consultant, social worker or similar professional, setting out the reasons why the nursery is the only one able to meet the child’s needs, before an admission decision is made. The admission decision will be made by the headteacher who may consult with the Executive Director for Children and Young People.

Thank you for the help you gave during the inspection and for the time you made available to discuss the actions which have been taken since the school’s previous monitoring inspection. The inspection was the second monitoring inspection since the school became subject to special measures following the inspection which took place in January 2013. The full list of the areas for improvement which were identified during that inspection is set out in the annex to this letter. The monitoring inspection report is attached. Having considered all the evidence I am of the opinion that at this time the school is making reasonable progress towards the removal of special measures. The school may appoint newly qualified teachers before the next monitoring inspection, by agreement with me. This letter and monitoring inspection report will be published on the Ofsted website. I am copying this letter and the monitoring inspection report to the Secretary of State, the Chair of the Interim Executive Board (IEB) and the Director of Children’s Services for Lewisham and as below.
