East Lane Primary School

East Lane Primary School was established in April 2017. It is a brand new £12 million purpose built school. It is already fully subscribed and pupils’ achievement in 2017 is excellent. The school has established a reputation of academic excellence with strong personal development.

We provide a structured, disciplined working environment in our schools. Every student receives high-quality teaching and achieves his or her full potential. The schools are first and foremost learning communities in which there is a strong work ethic. There are high standards of teaching across the curriculum with a particular focus on English, Mathematics and the Sciences. Students in all schools benefit from the use of state-of-the-art facilities, the sciences and technology disciplines, major investments in new facilities and resources, the best trained and qualified staff, and a culture of mutual respect.

Spiritual, social and moral provision sits alongside academic excellence and is at the heart of the Trust’s ethos. We offer a broad and stimulating range of extra-curricular activities to support wider learning, and provide an education that enables our students to excel and gain places at universities of their choice.

We are extremely proud of the results achieved by our students in Summer 2017: Reception: 90% of students achieved the Good Level of Development Standard. 91% of students passed or exceeded the phonics test of Year 1.

In Year 2, 89% achieved or exceeded the expected standards in reading. In writing, 81% achieved or exceeded the expected standards and in mathematics, 81% achieved or exceeded the expected standards.

Our schools are proud to serve our local community and provide students with the opportunities to succeed and achieve their ambitions.

East Lane is a multicultural school in Brent. We actively promote values such as "mutual understanding and respect" and equality between girls and promote values of democracy, respect and tolerance for all races, cultures, faiths and beliefs. This is lived out in the programme of Assemblies, Religious Education, English, Geography, History, PSHE and Citizenship classes.

Students learn about the development of the political system of democratic government in the UK, including the roles of citizens, Parliament and the monarch. They are taught about voting and elections, the role of political parties and the freedoms and liberties enjoyed by the citizens of the UK such as free speech, free movement and free assembly and worship. Students are provided with the opportunity of becoming members of Year Councils and the School Council.

Through our Religious Education and Citizenship programmes, students are taught how citizens work together to improve communities. This is put into practice through the many opportunities they have to become active citizens by fundraising for charities each term.

Assemblies aim to teach our students to have belief in freedom, and a tolerance of others. In the Religious Education programme, students study other faiths and learn empathy, tolerance and understanding of people from different faith backgrounds.

Interwoven throughout the Curriculum and the pastoral programmes, students are expected to accept personal and social responsibility, respecting and upholding the schools’ rules and the rule of law.

In our school community we encourage our students to show a responsibility to each other and adults in the way they behave in school and on their way to and from school.
