- George Tomlinson Primary is a three-form entry community school set in the heart of Leytonstone, a stone’s throw away from the tube and with easy access into the heart of London on the central line. Our recently extended school site is modern, clean, and bright with an outstanding EYFS facility including large outdoor space and resources. At George Tomlinson, we believe that all children deserve outstanding quality first teaching that is supported by excellent curricular opportunities and extended services that nurture and engage children. We want to inspire brilliance in a stable and safe environment through creative practice. We want our pupils to feel that when it comes to aspirations the sky is the limit and to prepare them fully for life at secondary school and beyond. We believe in achieving Excellence through Enjoyment. This is an extremely exciting time for the school in a period of rapid improvement with a new substantive Headteacher and Senior Leadership Team, supported by an experienced Governing Body and staff who are passionate about the development of the school. We are developing an engaging and challenging curriculum that will drive the progress of every single child through reading, Write, Inc Phonics for teaching reading, an outstanding Guided Reading program called Destination Reader, Singapore inspired Maths program called Inspire Maths and Philosophy 4 Children. We highly prize the creative arts, with instrumental music tuition of guitar, recorder, and trumpet taught in KS2 as well as a music teacher working across the school. We value modern foreign languages with French taught from Reception to Year 6. We are high achievers when it comes to Sport and our children are given many opportunities to succeed in a range of sports and dance delivered by two sports coaches who passionately believe in all children accessing and enjoying an active day at George Tomlinson. Every class from Year 1 to 6 also completes the Daily Mile. We are passionate about becoming a Healthy School and one where pupil's voice is prominent so that children have a say in their education. Pupil-led assemblies, school councils, and community workgroups will all enable the empowerment of our pupils and higher engagement in their learning. We believe in the importance of children’s well-being and happiness as much as their academic successes and we work on our Growth mindset across the school as well as delivering Mindfulness lessons. We are lucky enough to have our science garden on-site with a mini beast motel, a pond, and beds for growing our vegetables! We have sole use of a field a three-minute walk from our school site and our resident animal's guinea pigs and rabbits are kept in our classrooms. To drive forward rapid improvements at George Tomlinson, we need to have a shared vision of where we are going. View full school
