• OMG Education is personalised, flexible and restorative and aims to reshape school around pupils who need a different route back into learning.

• Will suit families seeking a very small alternative senior setting in east London for a young person who has not thrived in mainstream education.

Admissions at OMG Education are highly individual and suitability led, because the school openly is an independent setting for pupils who have been excluded from or struggled to thrive in mainstream education. It will mainly suit families who want a very small east-London school prepared to adapt around the student rather than expecting the student to adapt to a standard model.

Scholarships are not really the point here. The value lies in whether the school's personalised and alternative approach can help a student re-engage with education and move forward with confidence.

The overall picture is specialist and more purposeful than the tiny roll alone might suggest, with the school describing itself as a setting for pupils who have struggled in mainstream education and Ofsted currently showing it as Good. Parents should still ask direct questions about staffing, curriculum breadth and progression, but the school's mission is clearly different from that of a conventional small independent senior school.
