Pupils 'unprotected from extremism'

Pupils are not being protected from extremist views at a Birmingham school named in the Trojan Horse inquiry, a leaked Ofsted report has revealed.

Golden Hillock School in Sparkhill was branded inadequate in the unpublished report and placed in special measures.

Ofsted began inspections after claims hardline Muslims were trying to extend their influence and oust head teachers.

A statement from the school said it wholeheartedly disputed the validity of the inspection.

'Vulnerable to radicalisation'

The inquiry has sparked a government row in Cabinet between ministers about how extremism in schools is handled.

"Too little is done to keep students safe from the risks associated with extremist views," the report, one of a series of 21 to be published, said.

Inspectors concluded leaders and governors were "not doing enough to mitigate against cultural isolation" and this "could leave students vulnerable to the risk of marginalisation from wider British society and the associated risks which could include radicalisation."

The achievement of pupils, quality of teaching, pupils' behaviour and leadership were all individually branded inadequate at the school, which is sponsored by the Park View Academy Trust.

The report praised the behaviour of students and their eagerness to learn.

Inspectors previously rated the school as requiring improvement before it became an academy.

"Some staff, including senior leaders, are concerned about a perceived unfairness and lack of transparency in the recruitment process and the breadth and balance of the curriculum," it said.

Anonymous letter

The report also said: "Sex and relationships education has not been delivered through a carefully planned curriculum."

Golden Hillock is one of six Birmingham schools expected to be put into special measures after the Department of Education ordered inspections at 21 of them.

The inspections were sparked by an unverified, anonymous letter that set out a strategy for a group of hard-line Muslims to install sympathetic staff and governors in Birmingham schools.

The news comes after school leaders' union NAHT called on Ofsted to publish the 21 school inspection reports without further delay.

The reports were originally due to be published earlier but this has been postponed until next week.

"The vacuum created encourages fear and speculation that could hinder a proportionate response or appropriate action," said NAHT general secretary Russell Hobby.
