Latymer All Saints Primary School

"I went to that school now I go Bishop's Stopford School"

"I love it"

"Because I'm from this school I did five stars and it is a very good school you should try it.The teachers aren't strict but they are nice."

"Me and my son moved to the area in November 2013, I chose Latymer all saints because it had ok exam results and a good ofsted report, there were schools that scored better but I wanted my son to go to a cofe school as it was what I went to and what he had been to for the last year. Unfortunately, I find the staff that work in the office extremely rude, not all but some have no people or children skills at all and the attitudes you receive are horrendous. I thought it was just me but I have witnessed and heard other parents complain about this. In addition my sons class are soooo disorganised, you may say what class isn't but the evidence is clear when there are 3 classes for one year group and the one you child is in is always late getting the children into the class and letting them go home at home time. My sons home work has been handed to me with no instruction so you have to ask them what to do bear in mind these are preschoolers. Parents have not been able to locate children, when children initially go to their class one out of two teacher escort the kids in a line but nobody is at the back of the line living 4/5 year old's in a big playground with adults who are late running there kids through not acknowledging younger kids that have lost their class. I walk with the line to make sure my son gets into class and have had to escort other kids to class or the office when they have been left behind and locked out if they are late. It's been a struggle but the head has been quite supportive and I do not want to right off the whole school but my son went from the best school in the borough where we used to live, to one that isn't, both by ofsted standards and grades wise and I hate to say it but I can really see the difference. The use of youtube to read books to the children is shocking, the play ground looks like a site that hasn't been used in years everything is old discoloured and there is a broken playhouse with cracked windows. In all honesty if I do not see improvement I will be removing my son from the school, I am hoping it is just my sons class and in that case the head needs to step in and sort them out because there letting the school down. Sorry but I have to be honest about my experience of the school and thus far I am not impressed & I wouldn't recommend the school but I am still hoping for improvement."
