Welcome to the JFS website. This web site has been designed to provide information for prospective and current staff, students and parents. JFS is a state secondary school that has been educating Jewish children in London since 1732. On the website, you will find pages describing everything from our remarkable history to our current outstanding educational achievements. As well as details of our formal curriculum, you can find information on the School's many extra curricular activities. These provide a range of wonderful opportunities including sport, music, drama, debating and educational visits both locally and abroad. These are enjoyed by students and staff alike.  

In April 2009 JFS had another highly successful OFSTED inspection. On all 39 measures on which a school is assessed JFS was found to be OUTSTANDING.

Here are some of the specific things that the OFSTED and Jewish Studies inspectors said in their reports.
