Our Educational Excellence
At Little Eaton School, we believe that learning should inspire curiosity, confidence, and creativity. That is why we have designed a curriculum that brings together the best of the Cambridge International Programme and the Zimbabwean ZIMSEC curriculum—with Cambridge as our main focus.
This gives our learners the advantage of an international education, while still appreciating and connecting with their local roots. It is a curriculum that is not only strong in academics, but also builds skills for life-critical thinking, collaboration, and real-world problem-solving.
From the youngest in ECD to our confident juniors, our children are encouraged to explore, ask questions, and grow into capable, well-rounded individuals.

Bonjour from Little Eaton School
At Little Eaton School, we believe that language opens doors, not just to communicate, but to create a culture, confidence and connections. That is why we are proud to offer French as part of our learning journey from the early years.
Why French?
Because it is more than just a beautiful language - it is spoken across continents, used in global organisations, and gives our learners an early advantage in today's world. But more than that, it's fun.In our French lessons, children sing, act, play and explore. They learn how to greet, express themselves, and understand another culture, all in a joyful and engaging way.
At Little Eaton, French is not an add-on. It's part of how we prepare our learners for a world beyond borders
