The inspectors observed every aspect of school life over four days. They sat in on a significant number of lessons, spoke to many pupils and examined samples of their work. They also held discussions with members of staff and Governors and observed assemblies and extra-curricular activities.
The ISI inspection report found the school ‘Excellent’ in all of the assessment areas outlined in the report, across both the Junior and Senior Schools, and highly successful in meeting its aims and ethos. A separate compliance inspection also confirmed that all standards are being met.
Head Mistress Heather Hanbury said: “We hope the findings shared in the ISI inspection report give people a rich insight into what we collectively strive to deliver every day at LEH. We are all extremely pleased that the standard and quality of education and development provided at LEH has received such strong external ratification. The success of our school is thanks to the whole LEH community, from our brilliant pupils and teachers to our wonderful support staff, parents and governors.
“We remain committed to listening and evolving to ensure we continue to create an environment where pupils are encouraged to be exactly who they are, with the confidence to express opinions and take on new challenges.”
The report said: “Pupils celebrate learning for its intrinsic value and make swift progress, applying their skills effectively across the curriculum with curiosity and genuine interest.” It added: "Junior School pupils learn to understand themselves, to know their strengths and weaknesses and are thus well prepared for the next stage of their lives." And it concluded: "Pupils are risk-takers, seeing failure as a valuable and inevitable part of learning."
