About Jack Hunt School
HEADTEACHER'S WELCOME
Welcome to Jack Hunt School. At JHS, we have a strong ethos centered on the belief that every student has the right to a first-class education, and we consistently promote high expectations for all our students. We want all our learners to leave JHS well-educated; of good character; and ready for ambitious next steps. Our core values are:
- Hard Work
- Integrity
- Kindness
Jack Hunt School is a vibrant place of learning, underpinned by expert teaching of a challenging and broad curriculum. We provide high levels of pastoral care and support via our House system, as well as a comprehensive PSHE programme.
We think that enrichment opportunities are important for all students, and our offer in this area is extensive. We believe in high standards of behaviour and conduct, and our academy is a happy and calm place to learn. We are a diverse and inclusive academy, and we are committed to comprehensive education.
Academic success is very important to us, and we have a strong track record. Our students achieve well and many progress into our successful and flourishing Sixth Form. Our students have strong destinations after leaving Jack Hunt School. However, academic success is only part of our purpose. We also provide excellence in music, drama, sport, and the arts and we value all practical and creative pursuits. We also develop the qualities that are important in any young person such as self-reliance, courtesy, respect, initiative, and determination.
We are an outward facing school. We are proud to belong to Peterborough Keys Academy Trust, and this gives us the opportunity to collaborate with other schools. We also work with an extensive network of education providers, businesses, and charities. These networks allow us to offer our students a rich blend of opportunities.
It is a privilege to be Headteacher of Jack Hunt School and I would love to show you around. To book a Headteacher’s tour, please contact me on headteacher@jhs.pkat.co.uk

I have felt incredibly welcome since I joined Jack Hunt School in 2015 and have thoroughly enjoyed working with such a dedicated and caring team of professionals. I feel fully supported by staff throughout my time here at Jack Hunt and have been given many CPD opportunities to enhance my teaching and leadership skills. I have found from day one Jack Hunt School to be an inclusive school, with a family ethos at the core of the school. The school is set on providing the best opportunities for both its students and staff and I am very much looking forward to being part of the future journey the school is on
- Current middle managerMy time as an ECT at Jack Hunt has been fantastic. I work in an extremely supportive department, with a specialist mentor who supports my continued learning as an NQT. I couldn’t have hoped for a more supportive NQT department or school
- Current ECT teacherWhere the teaching is strongest, teachers have deep subject knowledge, questioning techniques are good and students know how to improve their work. There is no inadequate teaching.
- OfstedSpiritual, moral, social and cultural development is a strength. All aspects are well developed in this multi-cultural community. Restorative justice, putting issues right, is a focus. Students are keenly aware of the needs of others.
- OfstedJack Hunt School is a hub of learning for the local area serving the needs of families, the local primary schools and community. The school is at the heart of its community and embraces and celebrates the wide diversity represented.
- Leading Parent Partnership Award 2014Students behave well and have very positive attitudes to learning. They are well-mannered and respectful of each other and of staff. They feel that behaviour is good and that friendship with all is a strong feature of the school.
