Faraday School
London, Tower Hamlets, Greater London · E14 0FH
Faraday School is a small independent primary in Tower Hamlets, where roughly 108 children aged four to eleven learn in an intimate, close-knit setting. The modest roll allows staff to know each pupil well, an approach reflected in the school's top marks from the Independent Schools Inspectorate. Led by Head Mr Lucas Motion, the co-educational school carries no religious affiliation and operates as a day school only. For families drawn to a personal, low-key environment rather than a large institution, the scale here is a defining feature.
