This morning, we were thrilled to announce that 64% of our Year 11 students achieved a pass in both English and Maths, while 100% of our students secured the qualifications needed to advance to their chosen post-16 destinations.

Meet our Governing Board

The governing board, with the headteacher, has overall responsibility for the running of the school. Governing boards have two core strategic functions:

• Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction.
• Holding the headteachers to account for the educational performance of the school and its pupils.

No special qualifications are needed, and the most important thing is to have a keen interest in the school and be prepared to play an active part in the governing board’s work. Training is available for all governors and this governing board has an expectation that those new to being a governor, attend free induction training.

The PG03 Disqualification Statement summarises the circumstances under which someone cannot serve as a Governor. In addition, parents/carers who have paid employment in the school for 500 or more hours per academic year or who are elected members of the Local Authority, are not eligible to stand in these elections. Nominations must be from parents or carers with children at the school.

One of the evening's highlights was hearing and seeing our Trust Choir come together. I'm so proud of each our Cranbrook Singers who joined in these truly magical moments of music!

We are very proud of all the pupils taking part and the hard work they have put in so far! Enjoy the evening!

Rocksteady band lessons are now available at CEC secondary and are a great way for your child to learn music, gain life skills, build confidence, and boost their wellbeing in a fun supportive environment.
