From the Plumstead Manor School
Girls from the neighbourhood have thrived in the educational environment given by Plumstead Manor School and its predecessor, the King's Warren Grammar school, for more than 105 years.
We are excited to welcome a mixed intake of boys and girls into our community, which is totally inclusive, lively, and varied, as of coming September.
We are a vibrant secondary school that is making great strides in providing all of our students with a top-notch education.
We promise to help every child during their seven-year journey with us go above and beyond what they ever imagined, so they can go on to improve the world.
In our completely inclusive school, we believe that everyone will succeed and thrive when they are given high-quality instruction in a secure and joyful setting.
Because of this, all learning at Plumstead Manor is based on five habits, which also serve as the cornerstone of our rewards system.
Our young people are expected to put in a lot of effort, behave properly, and contribute significantly to their school and the larger society.
These characteristics define a Plumstead Manor education.
We promise to offer top-notch instruction, a comprehensive and well-balanced curriculum, and access to a variety of academic and vocational options.
The basis for opening up a wide range of possibilities for them to learn, grow, and succeed, this enables us to tailor our support and challenge for them.
We provide every young person with the opportunity to experience life at elite institutions or to network with elite businesses, and we are aware that this must begin as early as Key Stage 3.
