Dunraven School
Deze school bezoeken wij op donderdagochtend.
Op deze school wordt getracht een doorlopende leerlijn PO-VO te realiseren. Het bezoek aan deze school bevat daardoor een bezoek aan zowel het PO als het VO. Daarnaast is het interessant om te zien hoe Google Suite door de hele school heen wordt gebruikt.
Primary School
The Primary team is excited to introduce a class blog for each teaching group. This is an exciting opportunity for our students and teachers alike to share what happens in class.
One of the main goals of the blog is to increase the school/home connection by providing families with a window into the class’ activities. The blog also opens the class to an audience of peers from around the world who have similar blogs. This provides students with a sense of authenticity for their reading and writing.
Secondary School
Design and Technology is an inspiring, rigorous and practical subject. Using creativity and imagination, students design and make products that solve real and relevant problems within a variety of contexts, considering their own and others’ needs, wants and values. They acquire a broad range of subject knowledge and draw on disciplines such as mathematics, science, engineering, computing and art. Students learn how to take risks, becoming resourceful, innovative, enterprising and capable citizens. Through the evaluation of past and present design and technology, they develop a critical understanding of its impact on daily life and the wider world.

Columbia Primary School en Brook House Primary School
Deze scholen bezoeken wij op donderdag de hele dag.
Columbia Primary School
Deze school ligt in een multiculturele wijk en voor de meeste leerlingen is Engels niet hun moedertaal. Dit leidt tot o.a. een nadruk op creativiteit en de school doet een beroep op het probleemoplossend vermogen van de leerlingen. De school omschrijft dit als volgt:
Creativity and Thinking Skills:
We aim to make teaching and learning creative, active and engaging and we do this by putting a high emphasis on: talking and thinking together, questioning, making connections, exploring possibilities and experimenting with new ideas, solving problems and looking for news olutions and possibilities. We greatly value the creative arts and use them throughout our curriculum for their own intrinsic worth and to access other areas of learning through the arts. We are proud to be an Artsmark Gold school and a Creative Partnership’s 'School of Creativity,' one of only sixty such schools in the UK.
In 2019 mochten wij deze school voor het eerst bezoeken en de reacties hierop waren heel enthousiast. Wij zijn dan ook zeer verheugd dat wij deze school weer mogen bezoeken.

Brook House Primary School

At Brook House Primary School we believe that all children and students have a right to have an excellent education in order to give them the best life chances irrespective of race, colour, creed or circumstance. We are an inclusive, caring school where every child matters. We recognise that all children have talents and abilities to celebrate, and part of our role is to help children to discover these.
Although we work within the organisation of an Academy Trust, Brook House Primary School will always be a ‘community’ school. We aim to work closely with our parents, other schools and organisations, building partnerships that benefit not only our children but others in the wider community, both on a local, national and global level.

Eastfield Primary School is a very dynamic place to learn. Our ambition is to provide the best possible primary education in stimulating and creative environments. We want to develop a passion for learning, inspired by high-quality teaching, developing and building upon individual strengths and talents. We very much value children as leaders of themselves, others and valuable contributors to the local community.
We are an inclusive school. We expect all children to reach age-related levels, in line with national expectations, as a minimum, and we aim to ensure that the barriers to learning are removed, so that every pupil in all of our school reach their full potential.
Learning is central to everything at Eastfield. Our values based curriculum motivates the children to ask questions, see connections between things and enables the children be self reflective about the world around them.

These include English, Mathematics, Science, Computing, personal learning and social skills. We encourage learning outdoors and out of the school classroom where possible and believe in offering the children a wealth of experiences to stimulate their questioning and learning. We aim to create memorable learning experiences with planned and spontaneous experiences within and beyond the classroom and this often includes work with experts.

Deze school bezoeken wij op donderdagochtend.
Stockwell Primary School staat in de Londense wijk Lambeth. De school is gehuisvest in een nieuw gebouw en biedt onderwijs aan leerlingen van 2 tot 11 jaar.
