Welcome to Bygrove School
To pupils, parents & carers, we hope you see this site as an extension of your school; one that you can visit whenever you want for information or simply to show us off to your friends. To those of you we don’t yet know, we hope you‘ll find it worth your while to have a good look around & find out more about us!
Bygrove is an outstanding one-form entry primary school serving a multicultural community practically in the shadow of Canary Wharf in the East End of London. We are one of two primary schools in The LETTA Trust, a multi-academy trust and SCITT. Together we run a highly successful initial teacher training programme graded outstanding by Ofsted in 2017. We support other local schools & alongside our alliance partners, training the next generation of outstanding teachers. We may be small but we think big!
Our pupils are at the heart of everything we do. They are happy, friendly & well-behaved & they love learning. They achieve results in all subjects that are well above the national average & consistently make much better progress than their peers nationally too.
So how do we do it? Well there’s no big secret. We work hard at doing the right things & we get help from our friends. Aiming high is our motto & the sky’s the limit! Have a browse, find out more & if we’ve whetted your appetite, come & visit us.
