  • Be Respectful

The garden school in the heart of the city.

Welcome to Pooles Park Primary School. ​We are a culturally diverse, inclusive primary school within the London Borough of Islington. We pride ourselves on ensuring that every child that joins us is secure and happy and enjoys learning and achieving while they are with us.

Our website provides practical information about the workings of the school as well as outlining our approach to teaching and nurturing children. At Pooles Park we aim to ensure that every child that joins us is secure and happy and enjoys learning and achieving while they are with us.

We value children of all skills and abilities and we provide an environment where they can fulfil their potential and grow into responsible, confident and active young people. We offer a rich and fulfilling teaching and learning environment in Finsbury Park. We have a national award winning garden where children learn about growing food and sustainability.

Please take your time to browse through the site and discover all we have to offer you and your children. The best way to see what we can offer your child is to visit. I would be delighted to talk to you in person. Please contact me on the email address below or by phoning the school.
