Tiling an alcove shower enclosure ?

[STEVEROG]

I am wondering what the correct method is to tile the three walls of an alcove shower enclosure. I have such an enclosure consisting of two plastered brick walls and once studwork wall with Aquapanel Cementboard.
I have (following advice on this forum) stripped the paint from the plastered walls (back to the pink plaster). I have also applied primer G to the plaster walls.

I am now wondering how I should go about the tiling. Here is what I came up with but I don't know if this is correct.

1. Tile the back wall first

I will put a horizontal batton at one tile height and a vertical batton starting from the horizontal one. I will then work off these to get most of the back wall tiled. The tiles are 250mm x 400mm. The back wall is approx 760 wide so I will hopefully not need to do any cuts. Once these first lot of tiles have stuck and adhesive has gone off I will remove the battons and fix the other missing tiles to complete the back wall.

2. Side walls.

Next I will repeat the process above for the side walls. Not sure if I will need to do cuts on these walls but probably. If this is the case I will set-out so that the cuts leave equal tile widths at either end.

With the approach I have suggested above the back wall edges will be hidden by the edges of the tiles on the side walls. Is this right? I have thought about trying to mitre the internal corners?

Any suggestions?
