ERO Report | Cambridge East School

Our Latest ERO Report

Below is one of the statements from ERO's latest visit to our school. If you would like to download and read the full report, please click on the link below.

The school’s curriculum is broad and responsive to children’s interests. There is a strong emphasis on reading, writing and mathematics in daily programmes. There are many opportunities for students to be extended across curriculum areas including sports, music, science, leadership and art. These opportunities are made accessible through the inquiry approach and the school’s ‘enrich and discover programme’. Parents are welcomed into the school to view the programmes in action and strengthen the partnerships for learning.

Teachers use a range of effective strategies. There are clear links between students identified learning needs and teacher planning. These links are shared with students and parents on a weekly basis. Learner focused relationships are evident in the classrooms. Teachers encourage students to follow their interests and use an inquiry approach to actively engage them in their learning. There is an effectively balanced approach between teacher-directed and student-led learning, and a common language for learning is becoming embedded by teachers, students and parents.
