SUCCESS through our endeavours

Headteacher

Nigel Armsby BA (Hons), PGCE, MA, NPQH

Welcome to Highams Park School, a mixed 11-18 comprehensive school that serves its local community, with over 1600 students on roll, comprising of 240 students in each year group from Years 7 - 11, and approximately 350 students in our Sixth Form. The legal status of the school is a Single Academy Trust, an independent state funded school.

Our school motto of “Success through our Endeavours” coupled with our core behaviours of Respect, Responsibility and Resilience sum up the importance of the development of students' character alongside our role of delivering academic excellence. A strong relationship between students, their parents/carers, and the school is vital in ensuring students fulfil their potential. Our hope is that students who join Highams Park School in Year 7 are at the start of a seven-year journey, remaining with us until the end of Year 13, when they will progress onto the next phase of their life and enter employment, or continue their studies at University.
