Hurlingham and Chelsea Secondary School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hurlingham and Chelsea School is a mixed community secondary school, located in the south of Fulham in the borough of Hammersmith and Fulham. In 2004 the school went into special measures, but with the arrival of the new headteacher, Mr. Phil Cross, the school quickly came out of special measures[1][2], and in 2005 Ofsted reported that the school was rapidly improving. In October 2006 the Local Authority proposed to close the school, but the school campaigned against this, and before adjudication, the council withdrew the proposal.
