Welcome to St Peter’s School.

In September 2016 St Peter’s joined The Cam Academy Trust. This collaborative partnership gives our staff and students a growing range of opportunities to develop and broaden their experience. The trust CEO Claire Heald is clear that reading, all-through education, the best possible outcomes for our most vulnerable pupils and collaboration are key drivers going forward.

St Peter’s school was founded in 1870 and serves the residents of the market town of Huntingdon, and the surrounding villages. St Peter’s prides itself on continuing to offer excellence in education to all students regardless of their background or ability. We are a mixed comprehensive school welcoming approximately 1,400 students aged 11 to 18 each year from 59 nationalities.

It is an exciting and rewarding place to work, both for teaching and non-teaching staff, and we are always interested in hearing from dynamic and enthusiastic people who want to make a difference to children's education. To support our staff a comprehensive professional development programme is run with a significant proportion delivered by our own staff who are proven effective practitioners with knowledge of effective teaching strategies that engage, stretch, and challenge our students.  

At St Peter’s we work together with our students to make sure every individual has the best chances of success, now and in the future. We trust our young people to be responsible and positive members of society which is why we encouraged them to define our ethos.

Our ‘Learn Aspire Exceed Values Education works to support students in understanding the importance of the following key valued behaviours: Independence Hardworking Collaboration Curiosity

We work hard at St Peter’s to ensure all staff interactions leave employees feeling respected, prioritising staff wellbeing and seeing it as woven into all we do.

We look forward to welcoming you aboard.
