My daughter recently started at the High School in Reception and I can already see a difference in her- she’s so much more confident in herself and her academic progress has been remarkable. The staff have been very welcoming and the communication with parents is first class. The children are being given a really well rounded education and my daughter always comes home with lots of positive stories about her friends and the things she has learnt. I highly recommend this school!

At the time of writing my son is in the reception class at Colchester High School and my daughter is in the nursery. I cannot fault this school and am genuinely grateful for all it has done so far to help my kids, particularly my son settle into their education. Children are seen as individuals here and the teaching is excellent with full differentiation to ensure each child reaches their potential academically. There is also a strong emphasis on sport starting from nursery age which my two absolutely thrive on. With its quirky array of somewhat charming Victorian buildings that lay home to so many wonderful staff and students, the school is a very welcoming place. I feel as though my family are part of a warm and friendly community that will always do its best to guide our kids through the most impressionable years of their life. A positive buzz runs though the school at all times and from what I can see, this stems from the school’s ability to create happy confident kids with good values. The interaction between different year groups is a lovely thing to see. At the school disco, my four year old son was chatting to a group of eight year olds. They all know each other and are all friends! A great place :)

High fees, cramped classrooms, no facilities to speak of & an undercurrent of bullying that is, as usual, ignored by staff! Don't waste your money! (From a former student)

My son has come to Colchester High School for a fair amount of time now, after we decided to take the leap into private schooling. Initially- we loved it. Mr Robertson was a fantastic head, someone to really rave about. But, his successor was less so. One of the reasons we applied for CHS was because of the pastoral effort in the school, which made our son feel like he could talk to virtually any teacher in the school about any of his queries. Unfortunately, this changed after Mr. R leaving. About the time of a family issue, the schools pastoral department was dismantled, and changed. This meant that now that Mr. R had left, our son felt uncomfortable to talk to any of the staff. He was let down by one particular Humanties/Pastoral staff member who quite literally forgot about our situation- and therefore the checkups that took place. In other areas however, we feel CHS excels; the English department is fabulous, with staff that really care about there work. I really must commend Mrs Hoddell, and Mrs Candeler for there work for my son- that is some of the most fantastic teaching I have ever seen. Also, part of the Humanties department excels, with absolutely astonishing teaching in History, RS and geography. Although, not all of the teachers in this department are up to scratch. Again, I must commend Mrs Brindley, Mrs Cullen, and former head, Mrs Croydon. Sadly, the science department is held up by just one outstanding teacher, Mrs Rose. She is a inspirational teacher who never fails to flow joy into her lessons. The same however cannot be said the same about the other teachers. Languages staff are also dedicated to there work, and never fail to keep our son motivated, and in love with his work. Mrs Long and Mrs Porter are especially fantastic. The Art/Tech department is also brilliant, and makes sure that even though resources aren’t always fantastic, work through and stilll excel. I must commend all staff in that department. Overall, we are mostly happy with CHS, but are sometimes supremely dissatisfied by some of the teaching, and exam results.
