**The School**

Kelmscott School is a highly aspirational maintained secondary school in the heart of the Walthamstow community for students between the ages of 11 and 17. The school has a very positive and improving reputation and enjoys strong relationships with the local community and excellent links with local businesses and schools.

Kelmscott is a thriving school which provides a high quality of education in a happy and purposeful atmosphere. We have a reputation for innovation which attracts staff that are both enthusiastic and ambitious. There is a warm welcome for new staff, we hope that they will bring new ideas, commitment, energy and professionalism to our school in order to help every student realise their true potential.

Kelmscott School is easily accessible by road, tube and overground train stations. The nearest station is St. James’ Street overground on the Liverpool St-Chingford line and Queen’s Road overground which serves the Barking-Gospel Oak line; both are a 5 minute walk. Markhouse Road is easy to access with the instalment of brand new cycle lanes as part of the Mini-Holland project. It joins on to the Whipps Cross - Dalston cycle highway so within 15 minutes you can reach Epping Forest in one direction and neighbouring London Borough of Hackney in the other.

It is served by buses from Stratford, Leyton, Walthamstow and Chingford. Travelling by car, you can reach the A406 within 15 minutes and links to North London or on to the M25/M11 with ease.

Surrounding the school there are lots of open spaces and local community projects, early Victorian housing and Europe’s longest street market is only a 10 minute walk away from the school.

**The Buildings and Facilities**

All of our facilities set across two buildings are wheelchair accessible and include dedicated Maths and English classrooms. Our specialist facilities include a sound-proofed music suite and a drama studio with access to the main hall stage, and an amphitheatre for outside productions. In addition, we have four ICT suites, six well-equipped Science laboratories and specialist technology rooms for food, têxtiles, art and media photography.

Building works began in the summer of 2020 as part of our expansion plans to enhance our facilities. The first phase is now complete which includes an extension of our dining facilities, remodelling of teaching spaces and the addition of an activities studio. Phase 2 will begin in late 2021 which will see the addition of a two storey, ten classroom teaching facility.

**The Staff**

The school employs over 130 members of staff in a professional and highly positive working atmosphere which is b
