The Humber Estuary Federation
Goxhill Primary School first federated with East Halton Primary School in 2013. IIt then became The Humber Estuary Federation in 2018 when New Holland Church of England and Methodist Primary School joined the two other schools. The three schools are only 8 miles apart and are at the heart of their respective communities.
The three schools share an Executive Head Teacher, a Deputy Head Teacher, Assistant Head Teacher and SENDco and a School Business Manager. All schools benefit from the expertise, experience and diverse interests that all members of staff bring to the Federation and they are able to share their best practice with each other as well as benefit from joint training.
Children from all three schools can share experiences with each other through curriculum projects, educational visits and residential trips.
The schools also have one Governing Body. They are responsible for holding the school management to account and for providing the framework in which children from all three schools have the best possible facilities to support their learning.
Most importantly each of the schools retain their own distinctiveness and ethos, which allows children to develop a passion for lifelong learning in a safe and caring environment. At the same time we have the highest expectations of children and staff to ensure that every child flourishes and achieves.
