Welcome to the website for our school.
Whatever brought you here, allow me to take a moment to explain why I believe our school is a truly unique setting.
I've now spent 14 years working in this neighbourhood.
Prior to this, I spent a significant amount of time teaching in Hackney, east London, and working for a long period in special education.
The school has seen substantial change since I first came here in 2001, and as a result, our community has also changed.
We have always aimed to build a school community that is intelligent, safe, and happy, therefore I adore this comment.
We build our curriculum, which we have developed ourselves to interest and enthuse our kids, on the grounds that our kids feel respected and included.
Every learning opportunity has been taken into account and explored in our curriculum, which reflects a wealth of expertise and effort.
In practically every area of English and math across the school, SATS results and early years evaluations demonstrate improvements over the last five years.
The use of iPads and virtual learning is a daily necessity, but we also support the entire curriculum, from algebra to design technology, with our outdoor learning programme.
With their instructors, artists, tennis coaches, and outdoor learning specialists, the kids may frequently be seen having fun and learning outside of the classroom.
There are numerous allusions to an accepting and creative school culture inside the building.
Our youngsters can establish a work ethic based on community by applying for jobs from our job centre.
Even while we value innovation and forward-thinking ideas, we never lose sight of some tried-and-true traditional methods that all young children need in order to properly participate in society at large.
