Roman Road Primary School

[EduCativ]

Roman Road is a medium-sized Primary school that celebrates the diverse community it serves in the heart of East London. We are largely a two-form entry Primary school, with plans to become three-form in the coming years. We also have a 52 place Nursery and a Pre-School which caters to children between the ages of 2 and 3. The majority of our children live in and represent our local area which is rich in its diversity.
The School has undergone some major changes in the past few years. The original building which was built back in the 1970s has been enhanced by the construction of three additional blocks. These comprise 18 new classrooms, a new library new office space, and a modern sports hall.
At Roman Road, we encourage the pursuit of excellence academically, socially, and spiritually. We strive to develop an inclusive fun-filled environment, which is conducive to learning. A place in which all individuals are respected and feel safe and secure, a setting in which diversity is celebrated, creativity is encouraged, and where all members can grow and achieve so that they can go on to make positive contributions to their own lives, to the local community and the wider world beyond.
Our mission for the whole school community is to work in partnership and enable our learners to have equal access to a broad and balanced curriculum. We will provide a stimulating, secure, safe, and happy environment, which enables each child to reach his or her full potential. The school ethos will ensure children take responsibility for their learning and actions. The school ethos will help develop and realize the full potential of every child within the school enabling them to become confident and fulfilled, both as individuals and as members of an ever-changing society.
Educational Inclusion is about equal opportunities for all pupils. It pays particular attention to the provision for, and achievement of different groups of children. We believe that all children have the right to learn together and we are committed to giving all of our children every opportunity to achieve the highest of standards. We aim to ensure that this happens for everyone who attends this school.
Here at Roman Road we fully support Newham Council’s policy on Inclusive Education, which looks forward to the opportunity for all children to work together in the same type of school. We play our part by taking children who are assessed as having special education needs. Sometimes children need specialist help, which is given in the classroom wherever possible. There are occasions when small group work is appropriate, involving either just one child or a small number of children
Children are encouraged to have good manners and practice a code of common courtesy in their relationships with others. They are discouraged from “standing up for themselves” by using physical responses and are always advised to tell an adult about any inappropriate behavior so that it can be dealt with. We value and encourage courteous behavior and would hope that it extends into all aspects of a child’s life. We trust we can work together in the best interests of your child and for the benefit of the whole school.
