Haringey is officially top of the class when it comes to education – with more Good or Outstanding schools than any other borough in the country. Every school in Haringey now has the official OFSTED rating of Good or Outstanding, after Tiverton Primary School joined the ranks last week (external link)
Only two other boroughs in the country are in the exclusive 100% per cent club and Haringey has the highest number of schools.
Haringey is committed to ensuring that all of our children get the very best start in life, including high quality education on their doorstep. In recent years, this has included:
- A great start in the early years, with children achieving a ‘Good Level of Development’ in the top quartile in London and over 90% of all early years settings rated Good or Outstanding;
- Key Stage 2 results above national average and in the London top quartile for those working at Greater Depth;
- Among the best progress from KS2 to GCSE with pupils achieving nearly one-third of a grade more than others from the same starting points nationally;
- The best GCSE results in the country for our looked after children in 2016.
We have a number of exciting developments that will continue to push Haringey forward, including:
- The launch of the Haringey Education Partnership – a new school led approach to improving and supporting our schools;
- The STEM Commission – designed to improve access to Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) – see the article below giving an update on STEM in Haringey.
