Welcome

Welcome to Gainsborough in Hackney, East London — a community that encompasses our Preschool, Children’s Centre, Primary School and specialist ARP provision.

Vision & Ethos

Our community is at the heart of everything we do. We are a proudly inclusive, child-centred school where every child is known, valued and supported to thrive. Our six Keeps — Keep Kind, Keep Green, Keep Healthy, Keep Connected, Keep Safe and Keep Giving — are not simply words; they are values we genuinely live every day.
