The North School Mission: 

At The North School we aim to maximise the potential and future life chances of all our students and have extremely high expectations both inside and outside the classroom.  Our ethos is centred around our belief that students should be able to learn in a well ordered and engaging environment and that they should attempt all their work to the very best of their ability.

About The North School: 

The North School is a popular secondary school, oversubscribed in Key Stage 3 and 4, and currently has approximately 1,280 students on roll from years 7 to 14. 

Our committed and collegiate team of staff welcome and support all new members of the school community, whether students, parents or staff. They promote our school values across all aspects of school life and actively seek opportunities to engage students with their learning and development. 

The North School team upholds these high expectations and are supported by our highly visible SLT. 

Teaching at The North School: 

We expect our staff to engage with research and CPD opportunities to continually refine their practice as we firmly believe that every child deserves access to the highest standards of teaching and learning. 

Our teams work collaboratively to plan the curriculum and are the experts delivering their subject through the broad and balanced curriculum, from Year 7 through to Sixth Form. 

What the North School has to offer: 

• Lots of bright, modern and well equipped classrooms.

• The oldest school farm in Kent which is well stocked with all types of animals and has a very successful Young Farmers Club. 

• A wide range of opportunities for students to learn outside of the classroom; the basketball and tennis academies are particularly popular and successful.

• Excellent pastoral support teams, enabling high expectations of student achievement through a caring and respectful culture.

Collaboration with the Swale Academies Trust:

We are very proud of our collaboration with the Swale Academies Trust and together with the Trust we work relentlessly to continually improve the school experience for all our students. In addition, there are opportunities for career development and leadership roles throughout the schools based within Swale Academies Trust.  More information about the Trust can be found on their website at www.swaleacademiestrust.org.uk.
