May I offer you a very warm welcome to Manor Junior School, a 7-11 community school in Barking in the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham. The school was built in 1930 and has been serving the families of the Leftley Estate and the surrounding areas for over eighty years.
We are proud of our heritage and beautiful 1930s building, however we are a forward thinking school, and live up to our community values in all we do. We remember our values using the acronym ERIC. They are: These values are integral to the adults and children's everyday experiences and guide all we do.
We also have a mission statement, that uses the initial letters of Manor Junior School: At Manor Junior School we have a dedicated team of professionals who inspire and motivate all children to be the best that they can be. When your child is in one of our classrooms they will be learning from a highly committed professional, who takes part in regular and reflective training.
Children are taught through inspirational teaching and learning activities and apply their literacy and numeracy skills across our newly launched integrated curriculum.
