Manorfield Charitable Foundation
Our mission is to support the development of the whole child and enhance the quality of life of children at Manorfield Primary School and those accessing Gorsefield Rural Studies and Outdoor Activity Centre by supporting investment in both the school, its programme of engagement with the local community and Gorsefield so that:
- Manorfield's students have every opportunity to grow into responsible and successful citizens;
- Manorfield Primary School and Gorsefield become role model of effective inner city primary and outdoor education.
- As many children as possible from across Tower Hamlets are able to access and experience all that Gorsefield has to offer.
Set in one of the most deprived areas of England, Manorfield Primary School has complex needs to meet in terms of social, economic, health, language and cultural challenges in the community it serves. To achieve its goal of developing the whole child, the school must pay equal attention to its students' educational, personal and social needs. These go well beyond the areas covered by statutory funding and extend outside the school into work with parents and the local community.
The charity's purpose is to find the extra resources that both the school and Gorsefield need to do this important work.
