Beth Jacob Grammar School for Girls in the Hendon is the latest Charedi school to suffer an Ofsted downgrade after being criticised over its teaching of relationships and sex education.
Despite being ranked outstanding for pupil behaviour and good for its quality of education, it was demoted from good overall to a school which “requires improvement”.
Inspectors acknowledged the hard-working and high-achieving girls who were “taught rigorously” by knowledgeable teachers.
In the broad and thoughtfully designed curriculum, which took up 60 per cent of lessons, girls read demanding texts in English and produced expressive artwork.
