LAE, Stratford – Partnership in Action

This week a group of Caterham Lower Sixth Formers visited our partner school: London Academy of Excellence (LAE), Stratford. 50 Caterham pupils teamed up with pupils in ‘Caterham House’ to discuss such weighty issues as ‘independent/state school partnerships’ and ‘improving social mobility’. This framework allowed the participating pupils to get to know, understand and respect each other. The conclusion seemed to be that similarities were greater than differences, and that passionate teachers are often the key.
