Staff at The Forest School teach in modern, well-equipped classrooms and are offered a tailored CPD programme. Staff are allocated a laptop, have access to the school’s sporting facilities as well as the lively staff social calendar. The school has continued to invest in new technology with projects including a brand new school WiFi network, Show My Homework, GCSE Pod, Chromebooks for students to support learning and reduce staff workload. The school's drive on technology was invaluable during the lockdowns as the school had already established Google classroom.
The school has a newly refurbished subject block and subsequently every classroom across the school now has a ViewSonic interactive screen. In addition, we have invested in our all facilities across the school: new heating system reducing our carbon footprint, revamped technology including food room, whole school repainted, new interactive whiteboards, in addition to sporting facilities; upgraded our indoor swimming pool, invested in our sports hall, all weather pitches: MUGA, an all-weather football dome.
Academically the school has a positive progress measure and the boys achieve above national average. Our curriculum is clearly mapped and was a strong “good” as part of our Ofsted 2021.
