St. Vincent's Catholic Primary School

What St. Vincent's Catholic Primary School does

St. Vincent's Catholic Primary School is a state-funded Catholic primary academy located on Burnside Road in Dagenham, within the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham, England. It serves Nursery through Year 6 pupils (ages 3-11) and operates under the Good Shepherd Catholic Trust, a Multi-Academy Trust (MAT) within the Diocese of Brentwood. The school delivers the full National Curriculum — English, Maths, Science, History, Geography, Art and Design, Music, Computing, PE, RSE, and PSHE — alongside Catholic Religious Education, Catholic Social Teaching (Stewardship, Peacemakers, Solidarity, and Laudato Si'), and a Thrive approach to emotional wellbeing. Complementary services include a Breakfast Club, school clubs, SEND support, and a healthy school program with weekly recipes. Faith-based character is reinforced through weekly assemblies, a Year 5/6 chaplaincy program, a Mini Vinnies student council, and a parish partnership with St Vincent's Church, where the Head Boy and Head Girl serve as campanologists ringing the church bells daily at 12pm.

The school has 82 employees and one campus at RM8 2JN. Its digital infrastructure is modest: the official website is hosted by Greenhouse School Websites and serves as the primary communications hub for curriculum information, parent newsletters, term dates, and remote learning resources, with Google Classrooms used as the remote learning platform. There is no proprietary technology, no app, no API, and no AI/ML capability. The school maintains an active Twitter presence (@StVDag) and distributes regular parent newsletters; contact is via 020 8270 6695 and [email protected].

As a UK state-funded academy, St. Vincent's does not charge tuition fees. Funding flows from the Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA) through the Good Shepherd Catholic Trust, and pupil places are allocated through the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham's national admissions process, weighted by criteria such as Catholic status, sibling connection, and proximity. The school holds an Ofsted Good rating, and the school website displays associated accreditation badges. There is no M&A, fundraising, equity, or external financial activity reflected in the source material.
