The Royal Docks Community School is a coeducational secondary school in Custom House, London within the London Borough of Newham. It does not have a sixth form.[1]
History
In September 1999 students, and most staff, from Woodside Community School,of Plaistow, E13 8RX, were relocated to The Royal Docks Community School.
The school was seen to be state of the art at the time with nearly every classroom having digital interactive whiteboards, PCs with internet connections and Wi-Fi across the building - enabling teachers to use electronic registers that would update attendance records immediately. This was at a time when other schools in the borough were still trialing a small number of interactive whiteboards.
The sports hall / gym on the first floor had sprung floorboards.
