Partnerships with Bonner
Towards an Anti-Racist Classroom
Bonner works closely with Global Learning London on their Towards an Anti-Racist Classroom Project in line with our Equality Policy. Our classrooms have no space for discrimination and we are helping our children speak out against racism they encounter. We have designated Project Leads at our school that attend regular training to make sure we adapt to the needs of our community and that every child is able to access the same, quality-first education that Bonner is so proud to provide to its pupils.
As part of this work, we have devised our Anti-Racist Pledge.
THE Partnership (THEP)
At Bonner Primary we work closely with THE Partnership, Tower Hamlets Education Partnership (THEP).
THEP is a schools' company established by school leaders to deliver high quality school improvement to all Tower Hamlets schools. It is rooted in the highly successful collaboration that has characterised and underpinned education in the borough over the last two decades. The schools within THEP operate as a family to support, challenge and encourage each other in their determination to do the very best for every child.
THEP is independent of the Local Authority, but works closely with it and is supported by it.
Through Bonner's partnership with THEP we benefit from; CPD and training opportunities, school improvement team support, leadership consultant support and the peer review, school improvement mechanism.

Ashurst
All Year 6 children at Bonner Bethnal Green take part in a junior enterprise scheme called First Steps, which involves Ashurst Law firm, Future First charity and Bonner Primary School. Ashurst fund the project, provide staff to work with groups of children and give us their venue and lunch. Future First plan and run the sessions, Bonner Primary School provide the children and support in the sessions.
This is a series of visits where the children cover the following areas:
- What do people at Ashurst do?
- Making a business – team challenge!
- My money – saving & spending!
- What are my options for the future?
- To secondary school & beyond! My next steps.
Throughout the visits, the children keep track of what they are learning in a booklet.
The aim of the project is to encourage the children to think about themselves as employees of the future and realise that if they have a goal there are many small steps which will lead them to achieving that goal.
Students in Year 6 at Mile End also take part in a Insights Day where they broaden their understandings of what a law firm does and the many jobs involved in this sector.

This partnership was established in 2018 and has been running smoothly since then. The children have benefited from the expertise and generosity of our partners who commit their time every Wednesday for an hour.
