Eco Commitments

A number of initiatives have been set up across Inspiration Trust schools to support creating a better planet, including the introduction of a number of Energy Champions.

We are working to become a more sustainable school and have a very proactive Energy Champion. Employing a student-led approach, the focus of our students is on the projects that they want to run. This helps to create a much more meaningful experience for our students, ensuring full engagement and commitment to our goals. These projects also feed into our ambition to achieve ‘Green Flag’ status, with our plan to focus on three main areas: energy, litter and the environment.

This aim has allowed us to set reasonable and measurable goals, making sure we are accountable for our achievements and easily able to see the impact we are having on our local environment.

We believe that learning more about the local environment and sustainability is important for all of our students to gain a better understanding of how they can impact their community. By being a force for change in our community we are excited to continue our journey.

Secondary Olympiads

All students have the opportunity to be involved in our Trust-wide Olympiads. These see students compete in competitions within their favourite subjects, allowing them to shine in areas where they are gifted.

One of our strategic aims is to ensure each and every child fulfils their potential. We believe this potential is not only reached through academic success, but through wider opportunities such as competitive programmes.

Our Olympiads cover everything from Maths and Modern Foreign Languages through to Geography and Computer Science. They help children learn about teamwork and morals, and offer a fun, alternative way to explore the subjects they love.

School Meals

At East Point Academy lunch takes place over two sittings. This prevents overcrowding at the canteen and allows all students to have the opportunity to sit and eat their lunches.

Students can pay for a hot or cold lunch with the catering staff providing a varied range of hot and cold meals every day. Alternatively, students can bring a packed lunch from home.

We do not authorise students to go home for lunch.

Up to date school menus can be found on our website.

Leaders have skilfully designed a curriculum that now enables all pupils to succeed.
