Sir Martin Frobisher Academy is a primary academy in Jaywick, Essex, with a growing roll of nearly 200 children. Many of our families live on the Brooklands Estate in Jaywick Sands, the most deprived area in Britain. We are pleased to be able to offer transport to those families most in need to ensure their children can attend school regularly.
Sir Martin Frobisher converted to academy status in Sept 2016 and now has a strong, committed and experienced senior leadership team, who are dedicated to moving the school forward, while ensuring the individual needs of all children are met.
The Academy has a very high number of Pupil Premium, Free School Meal and SEND children and all staff need to understand the complexity of this and of the unique community that Sir Martin Frobisher Academy is at the heart of, whilst raising aspiration, always.
Having determined, and recently implemented, our consistent whole-school teaching and learning strategies, we are now excited to begin to witness the impact these are having on children’s learning over time.
The children at Sir Martin Frobisher Academy are lively and enthusiastic, and need the very best, and fully committed, practitioners.
