  1. At the City of London, Shoreditch Park students are expected to work hard and to show dedication and commitment to their studies, without exception. In return, we provide fantastic academic, creative, sporting, linguistic, and personal educational experiences: This ‘City Experience’ will be delivered through outstanding teaching and with the support of our sponsor, the City of London Corporation. There is also be a real and continuing emphasis on personal skills and the development of values that all young people need to be successful. We aim to provide a high-quality education for students in hackney and pioneer educational innovation or success will be judged by excellence in examination results, standards of behavior, sporting and creative achievement as well as the politeness, self-discipline, and the compassion of our students. It is important to us that students enjoy learning and feel safe and happy at school and we enable them to develop their confidence, independence, and self-awareness required for their future success and well-being. Students at the City of London Academy, Shoreditch Park are taught in an environment that promotes academic, creative, sporting, linguistic, and personal achievement: this is ‘The City Experience’. Applications for places at the academy will be made following Hackney Learning Trust’s coordinated admission arrangements. All children applying to the academy, including children with EHCPs and looked after children, will be required to take the GL Assessment, CATS3 Level C test. Children who do not sit the test will be considered after those who sit the test. Applicants will be placed in one of four bands, based on their performance in the test. Approximately the same number of children will be admitted in each of the four bands so that each band represents 25% of the applicants. Children with EHCPs and looked after children are placed in a band. If they are unable to take the test, their band allocation will be based on their primary school teacher assessments. The academy will consider all applicants for places. Where fewer than 188 applications are received, the academy will offer places to all those who have applied. The core purpose of the academy is to help students learn. We do this by developing comprehensive, detailed teaching and learning strategies that foster excellent academic progress. The City of London Academy Shoreditch Park ensures all our students have the essential skills to achieve in later life and opportunities to excel in every subject. The academy operates an extended day for all students the libraries are open before and after school and our staff offers a range of extra-curricular activities including an Additional Studies program of enrichment classes, two evenings a week. The PE department also runs sports clubs all year round alongside training sessions for the academy’s competitive squads before and after school. The City of London Academy Shoreditch Park values students’ well-being, their opinions, and their achievement. All students are individuals and have a variety of complex needs. Students with special educational needs (SEN), those who are more able in a particular subject, and the majority of students who fit into neither of these categories all need support and challenge. We do not compromise on students achieving exceptional levels of academic progress. We are rigorous in our teaching whilst ensuring that we engage students’ interests and inspire them to achieve the highest academic standards. Behaviour is exceptional, classrooms are focussed and students are required to complete their classwork, and the regular homework we set them, to the best of their ability. Our commitment to healthy lifestyles means that we encourage wide participation in sports and fitness. We have regular fixtures for all sports teams ranging from football to netball, taekwondo to trampolining. Students take pride in representing the academy and the academy takes pride in nurturing their talents and collective success. The City of London Corporation is committed to sponsoring the academy and to helping to ensure that our students fulfill their potential in a happy, healthy, supportive, and safe environment. The Governing Body is made up of governors appointed by the City of London Corporation, as well as local community governors (parent and staff governors to be appointed). It is our role to set the strategic direction for the academy, working with the Chief Executive Officer, Principal, and Senior Leadership Team in helping to create a culture of high expectations, aspirations, and scholastic excellence. Our brand new academy opened in September 2017. We are currently based in a purpose-built, modular building, where we will be for the first three years and are due to move to our permanent, brand new building in Shoreditch Park in September 2020. In nature, ethos, and approach the school is modeled on The City Academy, Hackney, an 'Outstanding' academy that is renowned for achieving world-class standards for its students. The City Academy, Hackney made more academic progress than in any other school in Hackney and was in the top seven secondary schools in the country for progress in 2014, 2015, and 2016. We intend to quickly establish the City of London Academy Shoreditch Park as a center of excellence for secondary education in the South of the borough as The City Academy, Hackney is in the East.
  2. Achievement, progress, challenge, inspiration, and enjoyment are at the heart of everything we do. We are committed to providing children with the very best education to ensure that each child reaches their maximum potential and develops a lasting love of learning and a sense of curiosity in the world around them. We know that children who feel respected and proud of themselves will learn best. Both achievement and perseverance are celebrated and recognized. Children are eligible to start Nursery in September after they have reached three and a half years. You can apply to the school once they are two and a half by completing an application form and returning it to the school office with official proof of address, dated within three months, and an official birth certificate. A general application form can be collected from the school office. Places will be allocated towards the end of the spring term, before your child starting in September. If your child was born between 1 September 2012 and 31 August 2013, they are due to start primary school in September 2017. n-year admissions are applications made for school places outside the reception class intake and Year Six transfer to secondary school in September each year. To make an in-year admission to Shoreditch Park School parents/ carers must complete an in-year transfer and send the completed form to Hackney Learning Trust. We know that children who feel respected and proud of themselves will learn best. Both achievement and perseverance are celebrated and recognized. We aim to deliver excellent education by providing a stimulating, rich and relevant curriculum that balances the rigorous teaching of core skills and knowledge with creative and imaginative opportunities. We believe in our role in shaping future communities and aim to ensure our children leave here as happy, successful individuals – sociable, thoughtful, confident, and equipped with the skills they need to do the best they can in their immediate environment and the wider world. Our expectations of the children and the adults within the school are high. We foster a welcoming, safe, disciplined environment where all children, families, and all other members of our school community are treated with tolerance, kindness, and respect. The curriculum at Shoreditch Park Primary school is constantly shaped and refined to ensure it meets the needs of our pupils. Learning is linked across the curriculum to enhance the children’s experiences and to facilitate a context-focused skills-based curriculum. We champion a holistic approach to learning and children are encouraged to reflect on themselves and their conduct as learners to support them in their learning journeys here at Shoreditch Park and beyond. Teaching children to read and write independently, as quickly as possible, is one of the core purposes of a primary school. These key skills not only hold the keys to the rest of the curriculum but also have a huge impact on children’s self-esteem and future life chances. We love reading at Shoreditch Park Primary School and linked with our Power of Reading Project we like to make sure that every classroom from Nursery to Year 6 has a well-stocked and inviting Book Corner. In our Book Corners, you can find everything from newspapers to poetry, non-fiction to fairy tales, and picture books to classic popular fiction. In all year groups, we encourage children to be reading at home every night. Sharing a book with your child is bonding, relaxing, and allows you to escape into another world with your child. Reading for pleasure will help develop your child’s vocabulary, communication, concentration, empathy, and imagination. Whether this is sharing books by reading together (when children are in Nursery, Reception, Year 1 and 2 this is crucial) or beginning to read more independently, we advise that all children read for 20 minutes a day. In Reception, Year 1 and 2 we encourage parents to practice the phonic sound cards at home with their child. These are available to buy from the school office. Most importantly of all, in all year groups, we encourage children to be reading at home every night.

Child Protection is part of Safeguarding: it refers to the activity that is undertaken to protect individual children who are suffering, or are likely to suffer, significant harm. Shoreditch Park School recognizes that new technologies have become integral to the lives of children and young people in today’s society, both within schools and in their lives outside school. Children and young people have an entitlement to safe internet access at all times. However, the accessible and global nature of the internet and the variety of technologies available mean that we are also aware of potential risks and challenges associated with such use. Our PTA is about much more than simply fundraising. We want to provide closer links between home and school and it is an excellent way to bring staff, parents, and friends together socially in support of the school, working towards a common goal. It is fun too - just ask any of the Committee members or PTA helpers. Obviously, as in any organization, we have experienced some challenges but we believe that with the continued support of parents and staff, our PTA will succeed in its efforts.

It is our role to set the strategic direction for the academy, working with the Chief Executive Officer, Principal, and Senior Leadership Team in helping to create a culture of high expectations, aspirations, and scholastic excellence. Our brand new academy opened in September 2017. We are currently based in a purpose-built, modular building, where we will be for the first three years and are due to move to our permanent, brand new building in Shoreditch Park in September 2020. In nature, ethos, and approach the school is modeled on The City Academy, Hackney, an 'Outstanding' academy that is renowned for achieving world-class standards for its students. The City Academy, Hackney made more academic progress than in any other school in Hackney and was in the top seven secondary schools in the country for progress in 2014, 2015, and 2016. We intend to quickly establish the City of London Academy Shoreditch Park as a center of excellence for secondary education in the South of the borough as The City Academy, Hackney is in the East.
