Globe School is an outstanding school with wonderful, fun-loving, inquisitive, and happy children who behave well and always try their best. Our staff is great too! They are hardworking, committed, and have caring, positive, and professional relationships with our children and parents. Our parents are a delight to work with, always keen to support our children. We want Globe to be a community of happy, confident, motivated children who love learning. We want our children to be successful citizens who believe in and value themselves and each other. We want our children to believe in and stand up for equality in all aspects of life. Therefore, we are continually striving to ensure that we nurture, challenge and enable each and everyone to be the very best they can be in all areas of school life. Globe Primary School was built in 1874 and has a long-established tradition of providing education for the Bethnal Green community. Our school is a community primary school in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets and serves a varied and diverse community from many cultural backgrounds. Boys and girls attend our school from the age of three, when they start nursery, to the age of eleven after which they transfer to a secondary school. Our school has an additionally resourced provision for children with special educational needs. There are thirty places for children who need additional support in their speech, language, and communication development. These places are allocated by the Local Authority. The school environment consists of a large three-story refurbished Victorian building within a walled playground. We have a continuing program of improvement to keep the premises attractive, safe, comfortable, and stimulating for everyone. We also have an extremely well-equipped Computer Room which houses 33 touch screen computers in which classes are taught weekly computing lessons. In addition to this we have class sets of laptops, learn pads, and iPads which are brought into classrooms for use. We try to stay on top of the latest computing developments. The children are loving using our iPods at the moment. For short we call it the ‘Language Provision’ and is a specialist provision within our mainstream primary school. It is for children who have a statement of special educational needs for difficulties specifically related to understanding and/or using spoken language. Children attend full-time and get extra help, including speech and language therapy. We have high expectations of all our children and encourage them to have high expectations of themselves. We want them to be confident in their ability to make progress and happy to have a go without worrying about making mistakes or ‘getting things wrong. We are an inclusive school and as a staff, we work hard to provide high-quality teaching for all and to help children make progress in all that they do. We encourage them to keep up their efforts, to recognize and celebrate their successes, and to stay optimistic when things don’t go according to plan, knowing that there is someone at hand to encourage and support them. We know that this is especially important for children with special educational needs and disabilities and we will strive to find ways to overcome anything that gets in the way of their learning so that they experience a sense of success and share this with their families. Our provision takes into account every aspect of a child’s development. The Curriculum gives the children the opportunity to achieve the highest possible standards of numeracy and literacy. To enable children to develop socially, morally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually we provide stimulating learning environments in which children are encouraged to learn through their own experiences and apply their knowledge independently. Within this framework of a broad and balanced curriculum, the individual needs of each child are met through well-planned and varied learning activities, including visits and specialist tuition.

On entering St. Monica's you will quickly appreciate that this is our approach to education. This is what our children say: “This is a very safe and happy school, where we are all very respectful and every child has the chance to shine.” “It is very nice that there are loads of people from different countries who can all meet in one place.” The vast majority of parents choose to send their children to St. Monica’s because it is a Church in Wales school and they want the special kind of education a church school will provide. We ask every child to bring their faith with them as they come into school – not to leave it at the door.

We have a value for each half term which is explored in school assembly and explicitly examined in PSHE lessons. Democracy is widespread within the school. Pupils have the opportunity to have their voices heard through our Pupil Council and Pupil questionnaires. Our school behavior policy involves rewards that the pupils vote on as a class group. The importance of Laws, whether they be those that govern the class, the school, or the country, are consistently reinforced throughout regular school days, as well as when dealing with behavior and through school assemblies. Pupils are taught the value and reasons behind laws, that they govern and protect us, the responsibilities that this involves, and the consequences when laws are broken. Visits from authorities such as the Police Fire Service etc. are regular parts of our calendar and help reinforce this message. Within school, pupils are actively encouraged to make choices, knowing that they are in a safe and supportive environment. As a school, we educate and provide boundaries for young pupils to make choices safely, through of provision of a safe environment and empowering education. Pupils are encouraged to know, understand and exercise their rights and personal freedoms and advised how to exercise these safely, for example through our E-Safety and PSHE lessons. Pupils are given the freedom to make choices within the school. Part of our school ethos and behavior policy has developed from our Core Values such as ‘Respect’, and pupils have been part of discussions and assemblies related to what this means and how it is shown. Posters around the school promote respect for others and this is reiterated through our classroom and learning rules, as well as our behavior policy. This is achieved through enhancing pupils' understanding of their place in a culturally diverse society and by giving them opportunities to experience such diversity. Assemblies and discussions involving prejudices and prejudice-based bullying have been followed and supported by learning in RE and PSHE. The school has a ‘Language of the week’ linking to languages spoken by our EAL pupils. Members of different faiths, religions, or beliefs are encouraged to share their knowledge to enhance learning within classes and the school. Our Pupil Forums in particular show that this has been successful. View full school
