Partnerships

At Brooke, we place great value on partnership working. We recognise that our partnerships are a key part of our school life and the work that we do in partnership enhances our children's curriculum, education and life-experience.

Some of our key partnerships and links to our partners can be found on this page.

Brooke House Care Home:

Brooke House, built as the stately family home of Eric Mackintosh, son of the founder of the Mackintosh chocolate empire, has four acres of scenic gardens offering spectacular views of the south Norfolk countryside.

We currently work with the staff and residents at Brooke House in the following capacity:

• We visit the care home regularly at special times of year - for example, singing at Christmas;
• We are looking at ways that we can use the grounds of the care home as part of our Outdoor Learning provision.

Brooke Cricket Club:

We benefit from the coaching and the use of facilities of Brooke Cricket Club during the late Spring and Summer months. Each year, the cricket club employs one overseas professional player, who works with the school to coach our school cricket team.

The school has historically had a very successful cricket team, going on to compete at regional and national levels in Kwik Cricket, and we are grateful for the support and encouragement our local cricket club offer.

Inspiration Trust:

We're partnered with Inspiration Teacher Training, a Norwich-based SCITT provider with classroom placements across Norfolk - including within our school.

If you would like to get into teaching and make a difference to the lives of local children, find a teacher training course to suit you and start your new career.
