About The Ellesmere Port Church of England College

Welcome to The Ellesmere Port Church of England College, a College with an ethos based on Anglican beliefs where we welcome students from all faiths.

We are a part of the Frank Field Education Trust and work collaboratively with the other academies in our FFET family to allow our students and staff opportunities to develop themselves in a manner that other schools cannot.

This is embodied in the FFET vision: 'Social Justice through Excellence in Education' and in the College’s motto: ‘Aspire not to have more but to be more’.

At our College, we offer students a very high quality virtues led education within a well-disciplined environment; combining the best in traditional education: high quality teaching, regular homework, high standards in behaviour, smart uniform with quality enrichment opportunities.

We deliver this first class education, in a state of the art building, using new technologies to support and enrich the learning experience and curriculum. This rich combination ensures that we are able to prepare all our students for the challenges of the future.

We give every student the opportunity to develop his/her individual talents to the full. We expect every student to work hard and progress well, and in order to achieve this, we need every parent/carer to support our College in this work.
