A love for learning. A love for Torah. A love for Israel. A love for each other I am incredibly proud to be the Headteacher of the Independent Jewish Day School Academy and to work with a fantastic team of staff, governors and parents in order to provide the best possible secular and Kodesh education for our children.
We are a modern Orthodox school whose values and ethos embody a love of Torah, Mitzvot and Medinat Yisrael, with the IJDS being the only school in the UK to teach our entire Kodesh curriculum in Ivrit. From the moment the children enter our Gan until they leave at the end of Kitta Vav, their daily lives are enriched and imbued with Ivrit, Torah and Israel.
The school's motto of Ready, Respectful, Safe and Kind is one that we strive to live by each day, building and developing independence, resilience, determination and academic success. We are proud of our British Values, which are weaved into and throughout our curricula, supporting and helping to foster a love for learning.

Governing body (15 current, 3 former)
iAcademy trust: local governing body and trust board.15 governors are linked to a profile (14 confirmed, 1 (likely)).
