London Nautical is an inclusive and welcoming school. Pupils enjoy coming to school and are happy here. They have a positive relationship with their peers and staff. Pupils feel safe and appreciate that staff are always available to support them if they have any concerns. Pupils are proud of the school’s maritime tradition. For example, pupils in Years 7 to 9 hold weekly parades wearing their naval beret. Leaders have high expectations of all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). However, the curriculum that pupils experience does not reflect this ambition. Some subjects are not taught in a way that ensures that pupils develop knowledge consistently well. As a result, pupils, including those with SEND, do not achieve highly. Pupils are respectful and polite. They behave well in lessons and around the school during breaktimes and lunchtimes. Bullying is not tolerated. When incidents of bullying happen, staff swiftly deal with them. Staff manage pupils’ behaviour well, which enables learning to take place in a calm and orderly environment. Pupils have access to a wide range of extra-curricular activities to develop their interests and talents. These include sports, boxing, filmmaking, gardening, football, and choir.
