Welcome to South Hunsley School! With over 2000 students, including 400 in our thriving sixth form, we are a larger than average secondary school and an exciting place to study and work. Our underlying principles, which underpin all that we do, are: Learning not just for purpose, limitless potential and community.
At South Hunsley School, we want all students to be curious and enthusiastic learners who leave us equipped to excel in all aspects of their lives. This pursuit of excellence starts with our wide and ambitious curriculum that is effectively planned and skilfully delivered so that students achieve highly and are supported to pursue their aspirations. Alongside the engaging curriculum, we offer an exceptional programme of co-curricular opportunities which further enables students to pursue their interests and discover new ones. We are proud that we offer over: 50 clubs weekly to students, including the Duke of Edinburgh Award at bronze, silver and gold level; a wide range of visits (both overseas and in the UK), annual school productions and performing arts showcases at Hull University, and our status as one of the best state schools in the country for sport.
Integral to the school’s sustained reputation for academic excellence is strong pastoral care. We want all students to thrive socially and emotionally as well as academically and therefore invest heavily in our student support team, which is strengthened through partnerships with external bodies, such as Mind. We are a large school but staff know our students well and tailor support skilfully to meet individual needs.
Lastly, we place great importance on making positive contributions both in school and the wider community. We encourage students to take responsibility for themselves and others, creating a culture of mutual respect, kindness and understanding. Our ultimate aim is to work with parents/carers and other stakeholders to ensure our students are happy, healthy, successful and effectively prepared for their next steps.
