3. OFSTED (February 2012) The ethos of Cranbourne has undergone a sea-change in recent years. In this highly inclusive school, staff have consistently high expectations for all students. They, in turn, now routinely demonstrate a greater pride in their school and a determination to do well. This is reflected in above average and improving rates of attendance, better behaviour and greater engagement in their learning.

6. Uniform From September 2013 we are introducing a one style trouser for girls and boys and a one style skirt for girls. This has been in consultation with students, staff, parents and governors. If you have already purchased a pair of trousers or a skirt for September, your child may wear these in line with current guidance. If you haven't already purchased these items, the new style trousers and skirts should be purchased from the Uniform Shop at CBEC or from Skoolkit. As of September 2014 all students at Cranbourne will need to be wearing the new style trousers and skirts.
