Summary of key findings for parents and pupils
Leadership, management and governance are inadequate and many of the independent school standards are unmet. This is the third consecutive inspection to identify serious concerns. The arrangements to keep pupils safe are ineffective. The school‟s child protection policy continues to be out of date. Some of the required vetting checks on new staff have not been completed or recorded. The staff recruitment process is weak. Leaders and staff have a poor understanding of the latest statutory guidance. There are multiple concerns about the premises, fire safety, the admission register, attendance codes and adherence to equalities legislation. Pupils‟ personal development and welfare are inadequate because of the multiple safety failings. The curriculum is too narrow. Pupils study academic qualifications only. The quality of careers information, advice and guidance and personal, social, health and economic (PSHE)
p.1
Summary of key findings for parents and pupils
education is not good enough. The quality of teaching, learning and assessment, and pupils‟ outcomes, are inadequate. The quality of teachers‟ work is poorly monitored. The evidence of pupils‟ learning over the past academic year is very poor, and assessment processes are weak.
p.1
Summary of key findings for parents and pupils
Leaders and staff care deeply for pupils and want the best for them. Pupils and parents and carers who spoke to the inspector are positive about the school.
p.1
Summary of key findings for parents and pupils
The school must take action to meet the requirements of the schedule to the Education (Independent School Standards) Regulations 2014 and associated requirements. The details are listed in the full report.
p.1
What does the school need to do to improve further?
Leaders and governors should ensure that: – they understand the independent school standards and ensure that these are all met – the arrangements for child protection and safeguarding are overhauled to meet all statutory requirements, including in relation to safely recruiting staff – the required works to the premises are undertaken, including ensuring pupils access their own toilets, providing an appropriate medical room facility, providing changing and shower facilities and regulating hot water safely – pupils access outdoor space more regularly for outdoor play and recreation – the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 is complied with – the admission register meets requirements, and appropriate codes are used accurately to record pupils‟ attendance – an accessibility plan is written and implemented – the curriculum is reviewed and expanded, ensuring it includes coverage of all required areas of learning and suitable provision for careers education and PSHE education
p.2
What does the school need to do to improve further?
– processes for monitoring teaching, the professional development of teachers and the assessment of pupils are reviewed and strengthened. The school must meet the independent school standards, as set out in the annex of this report.
p.2
Effectiveness of leadership and management Inadequate
This inspection identified even more failings than was the case at the previous progress monitoring inspection in October 2018. Leaders do not understand the independent school standards. As a consequence of inadequate leadership and management, many standards are again not met. The school‟s curriculum policy is extremely brief, and makes no reference to any of the subjects offered. In practice, pupils access a narrow curriculum, which fails to offer them experience in all the required areas of learning. All pupils study GCSE courses in English, mathematics, science, business and computer science. Sixth-form students study accounting, mathematics and English at A level. The curriculum still fails to give pupils adequate experience of physical, and aesthetic and creative education. The PSHE education programme of study consists of 11 lessons. This is inadequate in ensuring pupils aged 11 to 18 are taught the subject, over time. The lessons do not give
p.3
Effectiveness of leadership and management Inadequate
sufficient emphasis to the protected characteristics, as set out in the Equality Act 2010. Visits from people from various backgrounds and careers continue to be scheduled. However, pupils still have no access to impartial, up-to-date careers guidance to enable them to make informed choices about a broad range of career options. Assessment procedures are weak, and monitoring of the quality of teaching and assessment is very poor. Leaders do not know pupils‟ starting points, or how much progress they have made. Leaders‟ monitoring is restricted to checking test score percentages. According to their own information, this suggests that the quality of teaching and pupils‟ outcomes are inadequate. The curriculum is not organised to meet the needs of pupils aged 11 to 14, despite the school‟s registration being for pupils aged 11 to 18. A prayer room has been allocated for the school‟s medical room. The space is
p.3
Effectiveness of leadership and management Inadequate
inappropriate for such a purpose, and has no washing facility. Additionally, it is within the premises of a primary school on another floor of the building. Thus, it is doubly inappropriate for its intended use. The pupils‟ toilets are on the ground floor. They are accessible to the public, and shared with adult visitors. This is inappropriate. The hot water is scalding hot, as the temperature of the supply is not safely regulated. There are no changing room or shower facilities. There is no outdoor space. Pupils do not leave the premises on a daily or regular basis for fresh air, or to play. There is no physical education (PE) programme, and no scheme of work. Pupils have access to the park opposite the school once each week for a timetabled session of PE. In practice, this is an opportunity for outdoor exercise, rather than a lesson. The school‟s admission register still does not meet requirements. The attendance
p.3
Effectiveness of leadership and management Inadequate
registers use incorrect codes, so leaders have no record as to whether absence is authorised or unauthorised. Leaders have not written an accessibility plan. The school, therefore, does not comply with Schedule 10 of the Equality Act 2010. The school‟s work to develop pupils‟ spiritual, moral, social and cultural understanding, and to teach them about British values, is adequate. Daily assemblies focus on world religions, events in the United Kingdom and around the world, and monthly themes, such as tolerance, friendship and climate change.
p.3
Governance
Governance is extremely weak. Although the governing body meets every term, the sparse minutes show that they do not have a secure understanding of the independent school standards. Governors have failed to probe leaders‟ work. For example, minutes of meetings show that governors have been told repeatedly that, „safeguarding is a priority.‟ In practice, it is clear that leaders do not know what this actually means.
p.4
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are ineffective. The progress monitoring inspection of October 2018 stated: „leaders have not updated the school‟s child protection policy to reflect the most recent statutory guidance issued by the Secretary of State, “Keeping children safe in education”, September 2018. The updated policy is not made available to parents on the school‟s website.‟ This remains the case. In six months, leaders have not updated their child protection policy. They have, however, printed and filed the statutory guidance. The single central register of recruitment checks on staff still fails to meet requirements. It is not a complete register. Instead, it is a disjointed document in multiple parts. Leaders do not understand most of the recruitment checks listed. Checks are not dated. Some teachers, including those recruited since the previous inspection, have started work without the required checks being undertaken.
p.4
Safeguarding
The recruitment process is poor, and does not reflect the safer recruitment training, which the designated safeguarding leader has completed. Written references are not taken up, and there is no evidence of a formal application or interview process. Leaders responsible for safeguarding care deeply about pupils, but they still have an inadequate knowledge of the latest statutory safeguarding guidance. This is especially concerning as they lead all staff training and induction. There is no suitably trained person to deputise for the designated safeguarding leader, in his absence. Staff have a very limited working knowledge of the latest guidance. The school is not compliant with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. Checks on the fire alarm are not logged weekly, and monthly checks on the emergency lighting are not logged at all. It is unclear whether the many actions listed on the external fire risk

Safeguarding
assessment, undertaken in December 2018, have been completed to the required standards. Although leaders want the best for pupils, and the school is described by some as „a family‟, pupils are at risk because the arrangements to safeguard pupils are too weak.
p.4
Quality of teaching, learning and assessment Inadequate
No teaching was taking place during the inspection, and there are only a few pupils on the school‟s roll. Nonetheless, there is sufficient evidence to confirm that the quality of teaching is inadequate. Teachers do not work collaboratively. They do not receive suitable training, and the quality of their work is not monitored in any meaningful way. Evidence of pupils‟ work over the past academic year is very weak. It comprises folders of practice examination papers. Any evidence beyond this, such as written work or homework, is in their notebooks, which they take away with them. Pupils‟ progress is measured according to termly test results. This information shows that pupils often make poor progress over time.
p.5
Personal development and welfare
The school‟s work to promote pupils‟ personal development and welfare is inadequate because of the multiple safeguarding and safety failings. The curriculum does not include enough chances for pupils to develop socially and emotionally. There are very few opportunities for enrichment, physical exercise, access to the outdoors, and social interaction. The school‟s PSHE programme is very limited. It lacks sufficient focus on people with protected characteristics. As a result, pupils‟ personal and social development is restricted.
p.5
Behaviour
The behaviour of pupils requires improvement. Pupils say that behaviour is good, and that there is no bullying in the school. There are no records of incidents, misbehaviour or bullying because there have not been any. However, teachers‟ reports to parents state that pupils‟ behaviour in many cases is, in their words, „not good‟. Attendance and punctuality are good overall but, in some cases, pupils‟ attendance has been sporadic. It is unclear whether pupils‟ absence is authorised or not. This is because the school‟s system does not use attendance codes appropriately.
p.5
Outcomes for pupils Inadequate
There is very limited available information about pupils‟ outcomes and destinations. This is partly because there have been so few pupils on roll recently. It is also because the school‟s system for identifying pupils‟ starting points and the progress they make is so weak. Pupils‟ work folders contain mock examination papers only. Progress is measured entirely from termly test results. This information shows that pupils often make insufficient progress, over time, in many of the subjects they study, especially in English and physics. At the time of the inspection, pupils were on study leave, and attended only to sit their examinations.
p.5
School details
This inspection was carried out under section 109(1) and (2) of the Education and Skills Act 2008, the purpose of which is to advise the Secretary of State for Education about the school‟s suitability for continued registration as an independent school.

Information about this school
Khalsa College London is an independent day school located in the London Borough of Harrow. The school is registered to educate 50 pupils aged 11 to 18 years. The provision is „all through‟. There is no separate sixth form. The previous full standard inspection, in March 2018, judged the school to be inadequate. A subsequent progress monitoring inspection in October 2018 judged many of the independent school standards to remain unmet. Trustees of the proprietorial body appoint representatives of other local community organisations as governors. Trustees and governors act largely in an advisory role, mainly for recruitment of pupils and finance. They delegate all other responsibilities to a fellow trustee, who also fulfils the role of headteacher. The school does not use alternative provision.
p.7
Information about this inspection
This full standard inspection took place with no notice. The inspector reviewed a wide range of documentation, including school policies, logs, evidence of staff training, and information related to safeguarding, and health and safety. The inspector toured the premises, and considered all available information and evidence in relation to the independent school standards. The inspector scrutinised the school‟s information about pupils‟ progress and attendance. The inspector spoke with two pupils and two parents by telephone. He also met with a parent. There were no contributions to Ofsted‟s online questionnaire, Parent View. There were no responses to the staff survey, and no responses to the pupil survey. The inspector had meetings with the proprietorial body‟s director and headteacher, two teachers and an administrator. The inspector spoke by telephone with the chair of the school‟s governing body.
p.9
Information about this inspection
The inspector was unable to observe any teaching as all pupils were on study leave. However, he scrutinised all available evidence of pupils‟ learning, teachers‟ plans and the school‟s records of monitoring the quality of teaching, learning and assessment.
