We are a happy and harmonious one form entry Primary School with a Nursery Class set in the centre of London. We are a community school maintained by the London Borough of Lambeth. We have a beautiful nature garden and an impressive grassed area for the children.
We are all committed to raising achievement for all our pupils by supporting the most able learners as well as those with special educational needs. The ethos of the school is one of mutual respect and high expectations in terms of teaching, learning and behaviour.
A shared philosophy and understanding leading to self-discipline means that we can pride ourselves on the children's motivation to learn and their good behaviour.
