Madani Girls' School

Overview: Madani Girls' School is a friendly and welcoming school where pupils are polite, articulate, and courteous. The school has a strong culture of safeguarding, and leaders have high expectations for pupils' behaviour and academic achievement.

Strengths:

• Pupils are very polite, articulate, and courteous.
• Behaviour is exceptional, with respectful relationships throughout the school.
• Pupils achieve very high standards by the end of key stage 4.
• The curriculum prepares pupils very well for further study post-16 and beyond.
• Leaders provide a very wide range of experiences that enrich and enhance pupils' learning.

Areas to improve:

• Approaches to checking what pupils know and can remember do not consistently identify gaps in pupils' learning. Very occasionally, teachers do not check effectively enough how successfully pupils acquire knowledge and use it fluently.

Safeguarding: The arrangements for safeguarding are effective, with a strong culture of safeguarding and leaders who train staff in all aspects of safeguarding and provide weekly updates to maintain staff knowledge.
