Welcome to our fantastic school. Our mission statement: “achieving excellence in a learning community” highlights our core belief that everyone within our school is a learner, that everyone can excel to accomplish great things with the support and challenge of others, and that all achievement should be celebrated together, working in partnership. We aim for all of our students to achieve academic excellence and to also grow in confidence through other areas of school life, such as sport and the arts. We believe students have the right to experience excellence in the quality of teaching they receive, and always select the very best staff to work in our school. Our school is a happy, exciting, and dynamic learning environment. Elthorne Park High School aims for all students to achieve academic excellence. We succeed in this by placing equal emphasis on developing students’ character, potential and working together in partnership to achieve success. We pride ourselves on being an outward-facing school actively promoting shared values of tolerance and respect. We look to retain a wide range of experiences and opportunities to learn for our students through delivering a broad and balanced curriculum. We provide an inclusive and welcoming learning environment for all and look to develop students as confident, caring, and skilled world citizens. We recognize that the world and society are ever-changing and aim to foster the skills and attributes that give our students the best possible opportunities in life. We have four core values underpinning everything we do. Hover over each picture to see our definitions. Proud Prepared Persevering Principled Elthorne Park High School is a highly popular, successful 11-18 mixed school with around 1100 students based in West London. Our Sixth Form of 200 students offers a full range of A-Level and applied courses. We are a high-performing school and our value-added performance has been consistently in the top 20% of schools nationally. The school’s performance is significantly above both Ealing and national averages and is in the top 25% of schools for attainment and progress. We are significantly oversubscribed with around a thousand students applying for 180 places, expanding to 240 places, in Year 7 this year. We have a growing Sixth Form with a broad KS5 curriculum offering. We ensure that we recruit the very best staff who also subscribe to our core values and attributes. We have a strong leadership team that seeks to work collaboratively with all stakeholders. All staff, both teaching, and support form part of a qualified and experienced team, which functions at its best in being mutually supportive working towards our mission statement. Elthorne is organized into year groups each containing between six and eight tutor groups. Each year group has a Head of Year and an Assistant Head of Year, who were possible, will remain with the Year group until the end of Year 11. Each year group also has a non-teacher attached to their year group (pastoral support worker or non-teaching Year Leader). Our Transition Leader liaises with the primary schools that our students come from and we have very strong and comprehensive links to our feeder schools. The lower years (7 to 9) cover the National Curriculum's Key Stage 3 level of work and are overseen by an Assistant Headteacher (Key Stage 3). In the same way, Years 10 and 11 are overseen by an Assistant Headteacher (Key Stage 4). In the Sixth form, students are organized into tutor groups which currently comprises four per year group. There is an Assistant Headteacher (Key Stage 5) and an Assistant Head of Sixth Form. Each subject area has a Head of Department with overall responsibility for the curriculum, teaching, learning, behavior, and staff development of the staff within it. Each subject area is line managed by a member of the Senior Leadership Team (SLT), who works with the Head of Department to support the performance of staff and the progress of students.
