It’s with immense pride that we here at Forward Education Trust announce a truly remarkable turnaround: Hallmoor School, once facing challenges, has soared to a “Good” rating in its latest Ofsted inspection!
This incredible achievement is a testament to the unwavering dedication, teamwork, and sheer enthusiasm of the entire Hallmoor community – and it exemplifies the kind of inspirational journey we strive to support at Forward Education Trust.
The Ofsted report beautifully captures the spirit that now defines the school:
“This is a community focused on helping young people find their voices and their place in modern-day Birmingham.”
It’s not just about academic achievement at Hallmoor, though that’s certainly improved. It’s about fostering a sense of belonging, providing a platform for students to find their voices, and equipping them with the skills and confidence they need to thrive in the real world.
The journey from “Requires Improvement” to “Good” wasn’t easy. It demanded relentless effort, unwavering belief, and a commitment to working together as one. But the results speak for themselves:
- Strong leadership: The current leadership team has injected a spirit of “enthusiasm, drive, and excitement” creating a positive and inspiring learning environment.
- High expectations: Staff have raised the bar, setting ambitious yet achievable goals for each student, with “high expectations for what skills and knowledge pupils will learn and how.” Enabling students to reach their full potential.
- Positive relationships: Collaboration and support are the cornerstones of Hallmoor’s success. The report praises the “strong and positive relationships” between staff, parents, and carers, who “work together to overcome any barriers” and ensure every student’s success.
