Westminster SEND inspection information HERE.
From January 2018 our main means of communication with home is electronically. Please find here useful information about how important attendance is for a student to succeed and how best you read and understand your child's report. This documentation was also given out at our latest Parents' Evening/Morning held before the Easter break. Any issues or additional questions please do not hesitate to contact the school either by phone 02074793900 or by email at office@paddington-academy.org

Parents – do we have your up to date contact details?
From January 2018 our primary means of communication with home is via emails, the website and text messages.
We are not posting letters and leaflets to home. Please help us in ensuring your contact details are up to date.
You can do this by emailing contact@paddington-academy.org or calling the Academy directly on 0207 479 3900.
Thank you so much for your support with this.
Parents' Information Evening
Here are the slides from the Parents' Information evenings held this term at the Academy.
Attendance & Punctuality
Any parent requiring an absence for the purpose of a holiday or leave during term-time should make their application in writing at least three weeks prior to the time they wish to take leave. Additionally only one day will be authorised at a time for religious observance. This would include the Islamic Eid in September, as well as religious observance days of the orthodox Christian, Jewish and other religions. Any further absence would be considered unauthorised and should you decide to take your child/children out of school for this period you may be subject to a Penalty Notice issued by the Local Authority on your return, currently at £50 per child.
Reminder to parents: students are expected in school every day at 8.20am.
Parent View - Ofsted Survey
Parent View gives you the chance to tell Ofsted what you think about your child’s school, from the quality of teaching to dealing with bullying and poor behaviour. If you would like to access the OFSTED page for Parent View please go at the following link https://parentview.ofsted.gov.uk/. The survey can be completed at any time; you don’t have to wait until the school is being inspected.
