Sedgehill School

[EduCativ]

We are a school for 11-to-18-year-olds with high standards and high expectations for all members of our community – students and teachers. At Sedgehill, we are committed to ensuring that teaching and learning are of the highest quality so that all students can achieve their potential. We provide an engaging and challenging curriculum designed to stretch and challenge all of our students to achieve their goals – to gain the grades required by top universities, or to win places on high-quality apprentice schemes, or whatever other individual goals they may have. Students with additional needs receive specialist support from our experienced inclusion team.

We are fortunate to benefit from state-of-the-art facilities in performing arts and physical education and are committed to broadening the extracurricular experience of our students. Sports, music, dance, drama, art, and Duke of Edinburgh clubs run regularly at lunch and after school. We are particularly proud to be part of the Andrew Lloyd Webber program, under which all Year 7 students receive a violin and are taught how to play it.

From September 2017, we will be working in partnership with the United Learning group – a group of schools that aims to provide excellent education to children and young people across the country. As the new executive headteacher and headteacher, we bring many years of experience in how to make rapid improvements in London schools, both in United Learning schools and elsewhere. We will bring all that experience to bear at Sedgehill.

We Shall Achieve This Through:

• Providing the highest quality education for all students underpinned by excellent teaching which ensures all students make progress
• Delivering a broad and balanced curriculum that equips students with the knowledge and skills to be successful in modern Britain
• Challenging staff and students to reach the highest possible standards through effective leadership at all levels
• Motivating students and staff to become part of a vibrant and exciting school community by providing opportunities for all to succeed.

Sedgehill school has an obligation under section 78 of the Education Act (2002) which requires all schools, as part of a broad and balanced curriculum, to promote the spiritual, moral, social, and cultural (SMSC) development of students at the school. This includes actively promoting British values. We are very proud of Sedgehill School as we feel our school values are a true reflection of fundamental British values. We aim to ensure that our students become valuable and fully rounded members of society who treat others with respect and tolerance, regardless of background, and leave school fully prepared for life in modern Britain.
