For the second time in two months a Chasidic school in Stamford Hill has been upgraded from Ofsted’s bottom rating of inadequate to “good”.

Vishnitz Girls School, run by one of the main Chasidic sects, has followed the example of Talmud Torah London in impressing inspectors with its progress.

Leaders and governors of the school, which was ranked inadequate less than a year and a half ago, had sought support to tackle previously identified weaknesses.

Whereas Ofsted said girls previously lacked real understanding of other faiths and the full range of differences in Britain, inspectors reported pupils were now better prepared for modern life.
