What the school says

A thriving and ambitious school where children are nurtured and flourish. The dedicated and committed staff are known for their care of the children. Beatrix Potter achieves high standards academically (well above the Juniper Wandsworth and National averages) and offers a wide range of extra curricular activities. The school benefits from good sized classrooms and grounds next to the Ashcroft fields (available for our sports days, events, fun runs etc). Beatrix Potter's children are motivated, kind and extremely well behaved.

SEN statement

Provided by the school and not part of our review

Beatrix Potter is an inclusive school, we have catered for a range of needs over several years with great success. Like any school with a 30's building and space limitations we think creatively In the years 2000-2009 we had on average 11 children with statements and some 32 children on the SEN register. There are always some tensions catering for SEN children but the impact on all children has been very positive. Clearly, changes to the funding of SEN have an impact and will inevitably cause questions to be asked about what can and cannot be done. However, in an inclusive society at some point these issues will have to be properly addressed. 10-09
