About Virginia Primary School

Virginia Primary School holds an Ofsted rating of Outstanding, a grade it has maintained since its graded inspection in 2016, when inspectors awarded top marks for overall effectiveness, leadership and management, and early years provision. In a subsequent ungraded inspection in 2021, the school was confirmed to have remained Outstanding, with early years provision again singled out as Outstanding. This places Virginia among 19 primary schools in Tower Hamlets with the highest possible rating, out of 66 state primaries in the local authority. On the most informative exam metric available for primary schools, Virginia’s Key Stage 2 results are not published individually in this data, but the local authority average for KS2 attainment stands at 71, giving a useful benchmark for parents comparing schools in the area. The school’s closest Outstanding neighbour is Thomas Buxton Primary School, 0.9 km away, but Virginia’s own record suggests strong academic foundations from the earliest years.
