Buttercup Primary School
School summary
Buttercup Primary School is a small independent setting in Tower Hamlets, with around 113 pupils sharing its mixed classrooms. Its size lends itself to close knowledge of each child, and the absence of any religious character keeps it open to families of all backgrounds. Notably, more than a third of pupils receive some form of SEN support, suggesting a community used to accommodating a range of needs. The school is led by Mrs Rena Begum and inspected by the ISI.

Teaching & academics
As an ISI-inspected independent, Buttercup operates outside the state framework and answers to the independent inspectorate. With a roll of roughly 113 and a notably high proportion of pupils on SEN support, classes are likely to be small and teaching attentive to individual progress.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, non-denominational independent in Tower Hamlets that looks well placed to support pupils who benefit from individual attention.
That’s where Passmate comes in. Tutoring is the most effective thing in a child’s preparation - a well-tutored child can outperform the vast majority of their peers. Passmate works alongside your tutor, not instead of them: it learns how your child thinks, finds the gaps, and shows the tutor exactly where to spend each session - so the limited time you have lands on what actually decides a place.
Works alongside your child’s tutor - not instead of them.
