Hedingham School and Sixth Form is an over-subscribed, independent Academy situated in an attractive village in North Essex (within easy reach of Braintree, Chelmsford, Colchester and South Suffolk). Our students are polite and engaged and love to learn and our parental body is highly supportive. As one student recently put it when speaking to an Ofsted inspector, “The school values shape us into adults.”

We are a school that values its history, maintaining traditional events and initiatives that are deep rooted in the local community whilst embracing new technologies, such as our offer of T-level Digital Business Services in our new state of the art T-level building, alongside our rural vocational centre supporting students towards pathways into local.
Hedingham School provides a high-quality educational experience for all students and strives to ensure that each individual’s academic and personal development is fulfilled.

We offer a vibrant learning environment where students are encouraged to ‘think’ and explore strategies to grasp and apply knowledge.

The curriculum offered is purposeful and stimulating, allowing students to build a range of skills as they progress through school.

We want our students to be resilient and take on the challenges of the 21st century. We encourage them to approach school with confidence and participate fully in all aspects of school life.

At Hedingham School, our students support and care for each other and display high levels of respect for all members of the community. Hedingham School has a strong ‘culture’ which actively promotes equality of opportunity, allowing all students to pursue their ambitions.

We believe in building strong partnerships with parents, based on trust and confidence.
