Supporting Students Through Every Step

We work in close collaboration with our local primary schools.

East Point Academy plays an active role in the South Lowestoft Transition Leaders’ Forum.

This forum gives us the opportunity to hear from our local schools and discuss best practice in serving our community and giving our young people a chance to settle in and flourish throughout their secondary school careers.

Here are some of the events and activities we have held in the past few years:

Senior leadership attendance at primary school parents’ evenings

Assemblies at primary schools led by former students and our trained Year 10 transition ambassadors

Design & Technology, STEM and Art workshops taken into primary schools and held at East Point Academy

Music workshops at East Point Academy for children from nursery age to year 6

Close liaison with subject leaders so that East Point Academy staff are more aware of what has been taught

Hosted Year 6 pupils for the last week of the summer term to ensure that they were completely aware of the school, rules, regulations and timings

Heavily subsidised music lessons for students joining in Year 7.
