The Mossbourne Federation

The Mossbourne Federation is a thriving network of Primary, Secondary and Sixth Form academies in the Southeast, providing children aged 4 – 18 with an outstanding education. We deliver the highest quality of teaching & learning across a broad curriculum, underpinned by high expectations of every student and by our Federation values of Excellence, No Excuses, & Unity. Our staff strive towards a common goal: being the best we can be, ensuring every student, every teacher and every member of staff fulfils their potential. We value continuous improvement, are always learning, and always looking for a better way to do things. We are a supportive family that shares experiences, knowledge, and ideas in an environment that welcomes input and challenge.

Headquartered within the metropolitan borough of Hackney, all Mossbourne Federation academies are near London Overground stations or mainline stations, facilitating a no-fuss commute for colleagues living in and around the London area. London’s fashionable ‘East and West Ends’, are a short distance away.

The Mossbourne Federation is actively seeking to increase the proportion of our workforce who come from diverse backgrounds. We particularly welcome applications from people of Black, Asian, and other minority ethnic descent. Injustice, discrimination, and intolerance go against the core tenets of the Mossbourne ethos. We actively reject discrimination in our academies through continuous review of our working policies & practices across the federation, including at board level. We are committed to developing and supporting inclusivity, diversity, and anti-racism in every facet of what we do.

The Mossbourne Ethos

The Mossbourne Federation is the realisation of Sir Clive Bourne’s dream to provide the children of Hackney with an outstanding education.

Through upholding these core values, Mossbourne schools are without exception, exceptional.

The Federation’s calm working atmosphere creates well-rounded individuals who excel in the arts, on the sporting field and academically. All learners, regardless of ability, benefit from the innovative and enlightened approaches to teaching and learning within The Mossbourne Federation.
