This is a genuinely unique opportunity to take on a role at the first ‘all through’ school in Essex.

We are pleased to have been heavily oversubscribed each year since. The school will grow one year at a time until it is full in 2024. We are already planning our 6th form provision. We now have a full KS3.

- The fundamental British values of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance for those with different faiths and beliefs and expects all staff, volunteers and other workers to share in this commitment.
As a trust, we welcome applications from colleagues from all backgrounds. We particularly welcome applications from colleagues from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) backgrounds and people that identify as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender plus (LGBT+) as these groups are currently underrepresented in our trust.
