The Leading Edge Partnership (LEP) programme has been established to identify, extend and spread innovation and excellence in the secondary sector so that standards of teaching and learning continue to improve in schools across the country.
Schools in the LEP programme are at the forefront of the drive to reform secondary education. Schools working within the programme will lead the way, helping to transform the face of education in their local areas. Schools at the cutting edge of innvation and collaboration will eb selected from amongst the country’s best schools to act as a lever to transform secondary education, to engineer the growth of collaborative learning communities and federations, and to promote innovation, research and development to push the boundaries of current teaching practice.
Parkside was one of the first schools in this first designation.
Parkside’s Leading Edge activity falls into two main areas. With colleagues in the other media arts schools around the country, we will be developing innovative uses of media technology in the classroom, and with other secondary schools in the city of Cambridge and Cambrisgeshire LEA we will be developing a federation which will raise standards and promote opportunity for young people and adults across the city.
