Southchurch High School is an amazing place to learn and work and our philosophy of ‘a community of opportunity, learning and aspiration’ sits at the centre of everything we do. Our belief is that people achieve the best outcomes when they enjoy what they’re doing, feel safe and are rewarded for their commitment and success. We therefore support and invest in our students and staff, whilst maintaining high expectations.

The school sits in five acres of land and has first class facilities for both students and staff. We recently moved into our new purpose built block, which was completed last year and we have just seen the completion of a brand new four court sports hall. These developments have helped to give the school a very positive future.

The school is located in a quiet suburb of Southend-on-Sea and benefits from excellent transport links. We are within easy reach of Chelmsford, Brentwood, Colchester and London.

Our students, of course, are at the heart of what we do and it is essential, whatever position you are applying for, that you relate well to children and young people. The students at Southchurch High School are a pleasure to work with; they are keen to learn, talented and well-behaved. Our school is oversubscribed and has a waiting list.
