Rokeby is a secondary school for 11 to 16 year old boys, in East London, with a roll of 900.

Our students come from a wide range of backgrounds; more than 80% have English as an additional language and between them speak over 55 languages. We are proud of our achievements. Our recent progress 8 figure puts us significantly above the national average.

There is great loyalty here from staff, students, parents and carers towards the school and all of us are behind the continual drive for improvement. In our most recent Ofsted inspection, December 2018,  we were graded as ‘Good’.

The school is housed in a modern, contemporary building with superb facilities including large classrooms, science laboratories, technology and ICT rooms, a six-court sports hall, a fitness suite, creative arts areas, a drama studio and an external 3G pitch. It provides outstanding educational facilities for the boys as well as services for parents, carers and the local community.

Staff wellness is important to us, we have an onsite fitness suite, as well as a staff well-being package.

We believe that the ethnic and linguistic diversity of our students is our greatest asset and celebration of that diversity should be at the core of everything we do. We need staff who will make a difference where it matters in raising achievement; those who have the skills to lift the performance of others, the capacity to innovate and are motivated by a challenge.

Our values, shared by the whole community, of Respect, Success, Passion for Learning, Personal Challenge and Harmony permeate every aspect of school life.

Our school is part of Newham Community Learning, which exists in order to provide an excellent education for all young people in our community.  We are the only Trust to offer all-through provision from ages 2 - 16 within a single family of schools in Newham. Across our two primary and four secondary schools, all located in the west of the borough, we educate over 5,400 local children and young people, and employ a team of  close to 700 members of staff, the vast majority of whom live locally.
