FAQ

Where is the school building situated?

The Elmgreen School is located on Elmcourt Road in a brand new purpose built building with outstanding facilities for sports, the arts, sciences and humanities.

Elmcourt Road site is within easy walking distance of Tulse Hill Station.

Why was a new school founded?

It was calculated that Lambeth would be severely short of secondary places by 2011. Parents had sent their children to schools outside the borough for many years. 5,000 people signed a petition in 2004 highlighting the need for a new school in West Norwood.

The Elmgreen School was founded to provide additional places. It opened to its first students in September 2007. The Elmgreen School is a Parent Promoted school.

What does this mean?

A group of parents – the Parent Promoters Foundation (PPF) – worked with Lambeth Council to encourage the Government to release the funds for a new school. The PPF is the Foundation body of the school and provides five Foundation Governors. There are now seven Parent Governors on the Governing Body of 20.
