The standard of teaching is outstanding - ALL teaching staff were individually assessed by Ofsted and rated as outstanding.The school operates a \"Forest School\" programme which in addition to the schools own extensive grounds also utilises the facilities of the Devonshire Road Nature Reserve to give the younger pupils an insight into the natural world,this is continued in later years by the pupils active participation in the growing of various vegetables and flora in the school grounds.The school also has its own chickens(raised from the egg by Reception pupils) and rabbits which were featured on CBBCs' PETS FACTOR programme recently.The school offers an extensive sports programme and has a very successful football team,swimming lessons are conducted at Forest Hill Pools.The school offers many extra curricular activities including drama, music,breakfast club, after school club and the opportunity for pupils to undertake additional lessons by opening early @0855hrs. This school provides a safe and caring environment in which all pupils are encouraged to develop good social skills and to achieve their best in all aspects,a very good school which in my opinion should be rated as outstanding.","languageCode":"en"}},{"publishTime":"2017-03-10T10:13:25Z","relativePublishTimeDescription":"6 years ago","author":"Nico Teen","authorUri":"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/contrib\/105857917664513489144\/reviews","authorPhotoUri":"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/a\/AAcHTtdyOxS9FQDuHIQmXEmFsmuHt6VVXstCgfi4G89oQl16=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo","rating":1,"text":{"text":"Our kids were there, but we had to pull them out pronto.
