We are extremely happy with the School which has exceeded all our expectations, James has made an excellent transition and we are delighted with the progress he has already made.
School Coaches & Parking
- We operate eight dedicated coach routes across Essex for pupils travelling to and from School, so our pupils can travel securely from areas not well served by public transport.
- You can book your child on one of our coach routes for the full academic year through Kura, our coach provider below.
- Our School car park for pick up and drop off is located on Middleton Hall Lane (CM15 8EE). Please use the drop-off lanes to help keep traffic flowing in the car park as there is limited parking.
- Please refrain from arriving too early to pick up pupils. If early arrival is unavoidable, please follow the directions of the car park marshals and avoid blocking access so we can get as many cars as possible off Middleton Hall Lane.
- To avoid the busy pick-up time in our car park, our students can use the Senior School Tuck Shop, open and supervised from 7.30am to 6pm (Mon- Thurs) and 7.30am to 5pm on Friday. Students can catch up with homework in the evening whilst enjoying a light snack.
- An increasing number of families are taking part in ‘car share’ schemes. If the School can facilitate this and help put you in touch with parents who live close to you, please let us know.
Our pupils are kind, ambitious, and seek to make a positive contribution in the present and the future: our role is to help them achieve their successes - in whatever shape they may come - without any sense of entitlement.
