Rushey Mead School
Description
Rushey Mead School is an outstanding school serving a mixed community in an economically deprived area of north Leicester. The majority of pupils are from an Indian Hindu background, with Muslim Asian, some African Caribbean and very few White British students. The school believes that shared leadership is one of the keys to its success. Rushey Mead has two headteachers who share the same strong values and high expectations of their pupils and who have a common vision for the school. There is shared leadership across the school with co-heads of department leading the mathematics, science and sports faculties. The school believes the schemes it runs with student teachers and other professionals interested in joining the teaching profession contribute to the outstanding teaching the school offers. The school is also proud of helping encourage pupils to be socially responsible and runs its own charitable foundation The Rushey Mead Foundation in India.
