Extra curricular activities at Eastlea

Year 10 took a trip on a very hot day to Here East Technology Park in Hackney. On this trip they were able to see and explore the opportunity of start up businesses, different university campuses and see what their local area has to offer in the field of business and technology. Student behaviour was excellent and they asked engaging and thoughtful questions.

School Student Wellbeing Survey Eastlea is currently working to achieve the Wellbeing Award for Schools - a school improvement award. This is a national award, developed in partnership with the National Children’s Bureau, which places good emotional wellbeing and positive mental health at the heart of the culture and ethos of the school.

Your views are important in helping us understand what we are doing well and how we can do even better.

You will have received an email on 13.6.25 entitled Eastlea Community School Student Wellbeing Survey Please click on the link in the email and complete it. It should only take a few minutes. All responses and suggestions will be carefully considered and used to plan a range of school improvements.

If you have any queries about this survey, please contact the school and speak to me.
