At The Latimer Arts College, we are a community. Together, we are committed to ensuring that everyone in our school is happy, feels safe and is valued. We are over-subscribed, with approximately 1200 students aged 11-18 who are nurtured and guided through their education in a purposeful and caring community ethos based on respect for all.
We are a Foundation school, supported by a Governing Body and the Local Authority. We are not part of a corporate Trust and can truly say we are a community school.
With our students at the heart of all that we do, we expect each member of the community to uphold our core values of Honesty, Excellence, Ambition, Respect and Teamwork. We encourage the development of core characteristics and skills, such as leadership and resilience, to ensure students leave with the skills required for employment and future success. We also model the fundamental British values of democracy, rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance for those with different faiths and beliefs. We aim to make a positive contribution to both our local community and the wider society.
We have a passionate belief in the value of a well-rounded education and it is our intention to unlock the true potential within each and every individual, whatever that may be. We work collectively to motivate our students to place no boundaries on their ambitions, no limits on their aspirations and remove any barriers to their achievement. Through our high expectations we want to inspire our students to achieve excellence and be the best that they can be.
Our staff are essential to our success and so we are fully committed to their wellbeing and professional development.
We seek to appoint staff who thrive on collaboration, innovation and a desire to be amazing: colleagues who will have a passion for improving student achievement and personal development and be bursting with ideas as to how to achieve this. It is our job to nurture you to deliver this success.
We have a highly successful induction programme for new staff, including an ECT programme, and we offer an extensive range of training throughout this. We are passionate about supporting professional development to equip staff teams with the skills, knowledge and understanding that they need to not only fulfil their roles but most importantly to be fulfilled by their roles. We offer continual staff development and frequent training opportunities.
We are committed to the DfE Education Staff Wellbeing Charter and have a varied programme of activities and support in place for our staff. This is responsive and evolves annually based on context and needs, with our staff voice being instrumental in shaping what we provide. We have a very low staff turnover and staff morale is high, this was evident in the last Ofsted report, in staff voice, as well as by the fact that staff choose to send their own children to the school.

The Wider Curriculum
We have a thriving House system, with two forms from each year group making up one of our four Houses. This system epitomises the caring, community ethos, and encourages a little healthy competition too!
At The Latimer Arts College we passionately believe that participation in enrichment activities plays a significant contribution to personal growth and high academic achievement. That is why we provide a range of extended opportunities throughout, and beyond, the academic year. There is an expectation that all teaching staff will offer enrichment and this is factored into directed time. Non-teaching staff can also support both tutor groups and enrichment should they wish to.
The enrichment programme offers something for everyone, and we are always open to new ideas from students and staff. We encourage students to take part in as many of the exciting activities on offer as possible.
We believe in rewarding and recognising success in all aspects of academic and extra-curricular life. This culminates in our annual Pride of Latimer Awards Evening.
Our Facilities
Ensuring that our staff and students can thrive in a positive learning environment is one of our key priorities. Each learning area is well-equipped with the specialist resources that individual subjects require.
We have a state-of-the-art Science Block, the Masque Theatre, a multi-use Sports Centre and a 4G all-weather pitch. Significant investment has been made in the site in recent years which means that we are the proud owners of a separate Sixth Form and Staff Café, a new Sixth Form Centre, modern toilet block and extended canteen. Staff teams have individual bases or offices.
We continue to invest and innovate to improve the learning environment for all. The Latimer Arts College provides an excellent environment to teach, learn and work in.
