Our Vision

We want Virginia Primary School to be a community of happy, confident, motivated lifelong learners.

We want our children to be successful citizens who value themselves and each other.

Therefore, we are continually striving to ensure that we nurture, challenge and enable each and every one to be the very best they can be in all areas of school life.

It is an amazing building to visit.

Shared Values - The Kindred Spirits Project
We took part in a shared values project that was run by the Humanities Education Centre in Tower Hamlets. The project explored what we understand by British values. We linked with Awsworth Primary School in Nottingham and visited them in the spring. The project culminated in a photography project called 'Through Other Eyes'.
