Hertsmere Jewish Primary School, previously downgraded by Ofsted to inadequate, has successfully improved and regained a good rating following its affiliation with the United Synagogue-run Jewish Community Academy Trust.

Etz Chaim Primary School in Mill Hill has been praised by inspectors for its excellent Jewish atmosphere and standout features in Jewish studies.

Pikuach, the inspection service for Jewish studies accredited by the Department for Education, has decided to maintain its practice of providing schools with one-word overall grades following Ofsted's example.
