Stowmarket High School is an ambitious, progressive and charming place to work. At the heart of the school is a commitment to teaching & learning, retrieval practice and ensuring all students have a sequenced, engaging and entertaining curriculum. We are proud to be the school of the town, we know our purpose is to broaden the horizons of all our students, improving the life chances and opportunities for all, as observed in our recent Ofsted judgement.

At the heart of our success is a passionate team of dedicated professionals who understand that every second of education counts. We are united by a deep commitment to our students and the community we serve.  They are the very core of our purpose. Every moment, every lesson, every day is a vital opportunity to inspire, challenge, and support each child to achieve their very best. We believe, without compromise, that with the right environment and encouragement, every student has the potential to achieve greatness.

As proud members of the Kingfisher Schools Trust, we are guided by the shared values of opportunity, community, and excellence. These values are more than aspirations; they are embedded in every decision we make and every interaction we have. We believe in providing all students with meaningful opportunities to grow and succeed, fostering a strong sense of belonging within a supportive community, and setting the highest expectations in everything we do.

This is the Kingfisher Spirit in action — a belief that with the right environment, encouragement, and ambition, every young person can soar.
