Pupils at a private secondary school have been involved in some “very concerning incidents” linked to bad behaviour, according to an Ofsted report.

An inspection carried out in April at Al-Ihsaan Community College deemed it not to be meeting required standards in numerous areas. The report, published on May 10, commented upon the quality of teaching, pupil welfare, health and safety.

Sections of the curriculum had been cut out, pupil behaviour was poor and toilets were found in such disrepair that youngster’s chose to use staff lavatories. In terms of education issues, it was stated “pupils do not study art” and physical education lessons were often cancelled.

There were 40 students registered with school at the time of the inspection. It is an independent school for boys and girls aged 11 to 16, though it had not had any male pupils up to the date of the inspection. Parents pay £1,650 annually for children to attend their classes.
