Thank you for your interest in our school.
Malet Lambert has a long and proud history, dating back to 1932. Once a grammar school, it became a community comprehensive school in 1968 and it continues to be true to the word ‘comprehensive’ many years later.
Having taught in many schools and as a member of the senior leadership team at previous schools too, I am immensely proud to be at the forefront of the everyday running of this ambitious school. I joined Malet Lambert in 2014 as a Deputy Headteacher, before becoming Headteacher in 2016 and, therefore, I now know our pupils, staff and community well.
From our thorough transition process in Year 6 through to the close mentoring and support for our pupils taking public examinations in Year 11, we put the needs of individual pupils at the heart of everything we do. At Malet Lambert, we pride ourselves upon having high aspirations. These will ensure that all of our pupils meet their potential by creating a safe, yet vibrant learning environment, which sees first class teaching and learning every single day.
We are very fortunate to have such a caring, skilled and dedicated set of teachers, support staff and governors here at Malet Lambert; ultimate professionals who are dedicated to the pupils.
Having become part of The Education Alliance (TEAL) in 2016, this has only reinforced the support for our pupils further, by allowing us to work in partnership with other successful schools. 2023 saw us reaffirm a ‘Good’ Ofsted grading, as well as maintaining our Inclusion Quality Mark Flagship School status.
Malet Lambert year 11 cohorts have achieved some excellent examination results over the years. We are, of course, proud of this, but for me, it is of greater importance to ensure that our pupils have access to a broad and balanced curriculum recognising each learner’s personal, social and cognitive ways of learning, whilst encouraging respect for everyone. Our pastoral systems have been developed over the last few years and as a result are very strong.
Thank you for looking us up.
Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions or would like to come and visit us. Please contact the Headteachers PA, Mrs Claire Hairsine claire.hairsine@maletlambert.hull.sch.uk
Wishing you all the best,
Patrick Sprakes
Headteacher
