Inspection reports

What the school says

The Laurels attracts girls from all over South London to its spacious campus in Crystal Palace. Its 2023 ISI inspection report confirmed that the school is Excellent in all areas. Known for its strong emphasis on pastoral care and character education, in keeping with its Catholic ethos, the school allows girls to achieve academic success, grow in character and become truly well-rounded young women. Personal tutors, not normally found in day schools, are key to the school's philosophy, working closely with parents and girls. Headmistress Linda Sanders has led the school since its founding.

What is this?

Facilitating A levels are ones that are commonly needed for entry to leading universities. They are: biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, further mathematics, geography, history, English literature and classical or modern languages. The % of pupils achieving AAB or higher may therefore decrease if many pupils have opted not to take two or more of the facilitating subjects mentioned.
