About London Nautical, City of London Academy

Just over half of parents who responded to the most recent Ofsted survey said they would recommend London Nautical, City of London Academy to another parent, a figure that sits alongside the school’s current Requires Improvement rating. The school is significantly oversubscribed, with a capacity of 720 but only 545 pupils on roll, suggesting that while demand exists, the school is not yet filling its available places. This boys’ secondary in Lambeth serves a notably high proportion of disadvantaged pupils, with 49.3% eligible for free school meals, well above the national average. The headteacher, Michael Schofield, leads a school that has seen some positive shifts in its latest inspection, though overall effectiveness remains a concern. The parent view, while not overwhelmingly positive, does indicate a core of families who see value in what the school offers, particularly given its nautical specialism and central London location.
