Southwark Park School is a two form entry nursery and primary school. We have recently returned to our newly refurbished and extended site opposite the park and close to public transport links. We are proud of our school which has large classrooms, new IT equipment throughout the building, an ICT suite and a Multi-Media room and our children love the purpose built equipment in the playground.
We take advantage of the many places of interest and relevance to our learning that are located in our area or central London. We keen on sports and the arts with a large variety of sports clubs running across the year (Running, dance, football, athletics etc), a music and a multi-media club. Our last OFSTED (March 2014) was Good.
The Senior Leadership team at the school consists of the Headteacher, Deputy Headteacher and two Assistant Headteachers all of whom are non-class based.
