We are a very successful school based in Custom House in the London Borough of Newham, very close to the DLR and the Excel Exhibition Centre.

We provide an engaging, exciting and relevant education for all of our children and they love coming to school. We are very proud of the school's many achievements and believe this is because we work in partnership with our children, families, staff and the local and wider communities. Rosetta Primary School was recently placed in the top 1% of schools in the country for the progress that the children make whilst at our school; this is a fantastic achievement and one that we are extremely proud of.

We have taken the time to write our own curriculum which we believe is exciting and relevant; it also enthuses and engages our children at the same time as providing them with the values, skills and knowledge to give them a good start in life and to prepare them for their future. Although we understand the importance of academic achievement, and have high expectations for this, we also place great importance on our children's happiness and well-being and have a brilliant pastoral provision; we are a happy school!
