Founded in 2009, Faraday is a small, happy and vibrant independent primary school in East London. The school's unique riverside location, in the historic and artistic Trinity Buoy Wharf, provides a magical environment and access to a stimulating, creative community that offers exciting learning opportunities for the pupils and staff.

We are committed to giving every child a first-class education, with small classes, quality teaching and a personal approach in a caring and kind environment. In these formative years we develop resilience and inspire a love of learning and hope that this desire to explore, grow and create will stay with our pupils for life. We place a strong focus on literacy and numeracy, with a targeted approach that enables each child to achieve their best, With our rich and broad curriculum and extra curricular activities, many pupils receive scholarships to secondary schools of their choice.

Our children come from the Tower Hamlets, Newham and Greenwich areas, and beyond, with a school bus providing easy access to the school.

ISI

In November 2022, Faraday had a combined Focused Compliance and Educational Quality Inspection. The Independent Schools Inspectorate judged the school to be fully compliant and judged the Educational Quality at Faraday to be Excellent in both the quality of the pupils’ academic achievements and the quality of the pupils’ personal development.

This is equivalent to the highest Ofsted rating of ‘Outstanding’ and acknowledges the school’s strength in academic success and its commitment to children’s wellbeing.

Key findings are summarised below:

Academic and other achievements:

- Pupils, including children in EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage), attain well above age-related expectations

- Pupils’ subject knowledge, skills and understanding are outstanding

- Pupils display exemplary attitudes to learning and achievement.

Personal development:

Pupils exhibit substantial self-confidence and perseverance

- Pupils display advanced spiritual awareness for their age; they reflect on philosophical and spiritual ideas with maturity

- Pupils display excellent moral understanding and behaviour

- Pupils exhibit extremely strong understanding of how to keep themselves safe and look after their mental wellbeing.

‘Leaders and Staff promote and model the school’s values of kindness, respect and honesty consistently and effectively’ is one of many references praising the leadership and staff and the report refers to parents views including how they agreed with the inspectors that the school;

‘equips their children with team work, and research skills they need later in life’ and ‘helps their children be confident and independent’.

The inspectors also highlight how the ‘pupils’ academic and non-academic achievements are outstanding for the size of the school’ noting that several leavers have achieved art, drama and academic scholarships to senior schools with individual success at national level in gymnastics, football, singing and professional theatre.

‘The school fully meets its aim’ is suffixed with numerous affirmations of the school’s benefits including ‘to enable pupils to grow towards maturity and confidence’; ‘to instil habits of good behaviour from an early age’; ‘to teach pupils in a way that allows them to fulfil their potential’; ‘to inspire pupils; and ‘to deliver value for money’.

The School passed the Compliance Inspection where judgements are given either ‘met’ or ‘not met’ and all standards must be met to pass.
