TEACHING AND LEARNING

Eltham Hill Teachers use an explicit pedagogy based on a cycle of (PIP):
- Pre class prescribed research, preparation and reading using state of the art technology.
- In-class teaching and learning which combines and applies students’ and teachers’ knowledge, understanding, skills and language
- Post-class consolidation activities and tasks to allow the learning gained in class to be practised, demonstrated, tracked and assessed.
Our offer is enhanced by the range of exceptional study-spaces we provide including specialist laboratories and sports facilities, drama and dance studios, a well-resourced library and independent study areas.
