Next Practice in Communities for Learning - St Paul's Way Community

Urban village

A partnership between Tower Hamlets Council, Tower Hamlets Primary Care Trust (PCT), the housing company Poplar Housing and Regeneration Community Association (HARCA) has envisioned a transformation of the St Paul's Way neighbourhood.

Central to the vision of a new St Paul's Way 'urban village' is St Paul's Way Community School, which is being wholly rebuilt under the Tower Hamlets Building Schools for the Future (BSF) programme. The trial draws upon the work of the Bromley by Bow Centre as it rethinks the roles of health, youth, housing and education workers in relation to the emerging St Paul's Way campus. Facilitating community engagement between the school and the 'street' will ensure that participants make an identifiable and significant contribution to the creation of a new campus and a new sense of 'place' in St Paul's Way.
