Thank you for your interest in working at John Masefield High School.  JMHS is a school where excellent and enjoyable learning, in a supportive community, enables everybody to achieve their best. 

Students achieve well at JMHS and we are proud of their outcomes.  Our average GCSE grades and pass rates are consistently above the national average, and last year’s cohort of Sixth Formers made better-than-expected progress in both A-level and vocational qualifications.  This strong progress is built upon our firm conviction that all of our children will learn and flourish, coupled with exceptional teaching. 

We are no less proud of the extracurricular achievements of our students.  Students here thrive on the breadth of opportunities available, and on the care and connection they experience within our community.  Whether their passion is for sport, music, drama, the arts, games, or academic pursuits, children in this community will find something to enrich their school experience.  This means that they leave us with happy memories, and a well-rounded character.  For us, this is as important as their leaving us with excellent grades and qualifications.
