It’s a place where my daughter is very lucky to go and although I never thought I would pay for education, I couldn’t un-see what I saw when meeting the principal Julia Dunford, what an inspiring woman to lead a progressive and life changing independent school. Valuing above all, kindness, resilience, collaboration and nurturing our children to become the best humans they can be, and let’s face it the world really needs it right now.
Ofsted have not got the same vision unfortunately and although the children spend half their week in outdoors learning environments, whether that’s in the forest, enjoying the beautiful London parks or on the roof terrace of the school, they see ‘lack of outdoor space’ and although the children are nurtured individually, in a way that inspires a love of learning and sees each child for who they are and what they need, Ofsted sees ‘unstructured curriculum’ even the inspectors visiting the school admitted that Ofsted does not work for progressive schools like FLS, although it is a model that everyone would choose for their children if they could, society is always about ticking boxes and fitting a mould which doesn’t work.
The families of FLS see how special the school is and how our children have flourished (mine in just 2 years) it’s mind blowing and I can be almost certain she wouldn’t be as confident in who she is and her talents if we hadn’t taken this educational route.
If you are looking for a personal, inspiring school for your child look no further, The Family Learning School is the place <3
