A Warm Welcome to The Reach Free School
At The Reach Free School, we believe that a happy, supportive community is the perfect foundation for academic excellence. We inspire a genuine love of learning in our pupils, setting ambitious targets within our modern facilities to help them discover their full potential. This blend of high-quality teaching and a personalised approach creates the wonderfully cohesive environment you’ll find here. But don’t just take my word for it; our doors are always open for you to see the amazing things our pupils achieve every day.
Everything we do is guided by our simple but powerful ethos: ACE.
Achievement: We celebrate success in all its forms, from the classroom to final examinations.
Community: In our smaller-than-average school, strong friendships are built, and every pupil feels known and valued.
Enjoyment: We believe that learning should be engaging, and through a wide range of opportunities we offer, we make the school experience enjoyable.
As you explore our website, you will discover the detail behind our approach. Take a look at the ‘What your child will learn’ booklets for an insight into our pupils’ academic journey, and learn how our unique electives programme helps pupils broaden their horizons.
We are proud to be a truly non-selective school. We do not have admission tests or aptitude requirements. If you have a child in primary school, Hertfordshire coordinates the secondary transfer admissions. For those looking to transfer from another secondary school, we coordinate our own in-year admissions. You can apply via the link on our site or by calling the school on 01923 711517.
For a real window into life at The Reach Free School, I encourage you to read our half-termly newsletter. It showcases our pupils' many accomplishments and will give you a true flavour of our school.
Thank you for taking the time to visit the website. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me at head@reachfree.co.uk. I look forward to welcoming you to The Reach Free School soon.
