Headlands School Information

We are a coastal secondary school, located just less than 1 mile away from the beautiful North Shore in the seaside town of Bridlington in the East Riding of Yorkshire. We have approximately 900 students on roll and this includes 150 post-16 learners in our thriving Sixth Form. Here at Headlands School we pride ourselves on working in productive partnerships with staff, students, parents and the wider community to proactively develop and enhance the teaching and learning experience for all our students. For example, we have a unique employer, FE College and apprenticeship partnership with AB Graphic, East Riding College and Derwent Training called “HEAD into Engineering.” With our Partners we are working closely together to pool resources and share expertise to create a dynamic and inclusive Engineering curriculum offer that has clear pathways into employment for the students of Headlands School. Over the years our students have continued to have achieve examination results at both GCSE and A’ Level and this is alongside our extensive extra-curricular which offers every student opportunities to develop outside the normal classroom environment. Headlands School students are encouraged to participate in residential trips to support curriculum subjects and to also venture further afield. Residential trips include: Student Council visit to Cape Town, South Africa, Duke of Edinburgh Expeditions to Morocco; Theatre & Cultural visits to London; Sixth Form Conferences at Kings College, Cambridge; Auschwitz; along with various day visits including the Science Museum, Eden Camp and Hull University. Finally our mission, to secure outstanding learning and progress for all our students, alongside developing their social, moral, spiritual, and cultural awareness, ensures our student’s educational experiences are their "passport to success" in the next stage of their educational, training or career experience.
