Overview

At Rokeby School, we provide a broad and balanced curriculum designed to prepare students for further education, career pathways, and life beyond secondary school. Our curriculum equips students with the qualifications, knowledge, skills, and values they need to succeed.

Our school, purpose-built in 2010, is a modern secondary school in Newham with bright classrooms and generous outdoor space. Facilities include ICT, technology and music suites, a performance theatre, a dance studio, and an Olympic-standard six-court indoor sports hall with a fully equipped gym. Outside, students benefit from a multi-use games pitch, a fitness trail, and outdoor dining areas, enabling a wide range of sporting and recreational activities as part of our enrichment programme.

Our curriculum is complemented by a wide range of enrichment opportunities, including sports, arts, music, drama, and leadership programmes, giving every boy the chance to explore new interests, develop life skills, and thrive both inside and outside the classroom.

Key Stage 3: Years 7, 8 and 9

Our three-year Key Stage 3 curriculum allows students to study the full range of national curriculum subjects and build a strong foundation for GCSE study at Key Stage 4. Core subjects – English, maths, and science – are taught in ability sets to stretch the most able students while providing additional support where needed. All other subjects are delivered in tutor groups, fostering strong academic and pastoral relationships.

At Key Stage 3, all our students study the subjects below.  Click on the links below for detailed information regarding what is taught in each of these subject areas at Key Stage 3.

Key Stage 4: Years 10 and 11

At Key Stage 4, students continue studying core curriculum subjects while selecting two ‘option’ subjects that align with their interests and career aspirations. This provides a broad range of academic qualifications to support future studies and career pathways.

Use of technology to support learning

At Rokeby, we work to ensure that students have access to online resources that we believe will support their learning.  We document and publish all sites that students interact with at our school so that parents and carers are aware of the sites their children are using.

Our remote learning offer

Our provision is structured around in-school learning.  However, we also have arrangements in place for remote learning should this be required, which can be accessed here.
