School history
The school was founded by the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur in 1855 and celebrated its 150th anniversary in 2005.[citation needed]
Previous Headteachers include Sister Myra Poole, SND and Sister Rosemary O'Callaghan who became the school chaplain.
The school converted to academy status in December 2022,[3] having previously been a voluntary aided school administered by Southwark Council. The school is sponsored by the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Southwark and the South East London Catholic Academy Trust, but coordinates with the local authority for admissions.
Linked schools
The Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur base their spirituality on the teachings of their Mother Foundress, Saint Julie Billiart. The Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur founded other schools in the United Kingdom:[citation needed]
- Notre Dame High School, Glasgow
- Notre Dame Catholic Sixth Form College, Leeds
- Notre Dame High School, Norwich
- Notre Dame Catholic School, Plymouth
- Notre Dame High School, Sheffield
- Notre Dame Catholic College, Liverpool
- several schools which became part of St Julie's Catholic High School, Liverpool
They also previously had schools in Battersea, London; Wigan, Lancashire; and a boarding school in Birkdale, Lancashire (some of the other schools having initially been boarding and day schools).
School performance
As of 2020, the school was last inspected by Ofsted in 2012, when it received a judgement of Outstanding.[4]
In 2019 the school was identified as the most undersubscribed school of those judged Outstanding; it had the lowest ratio of applications per place.[5]
