Eckington School is an 11-18 comprehensive secondary school in north-east Derbyshire with more than 1200 students on roll, including the school's Sixth Form.
Eckington School joined Chorus Education Trust in April 2023, at which point we also welcomed a new headteacher, whose proven track record in developing a positive ethos under strong leadership is enabling the school on its journey of improvement. Further appointments to the senior leadership team have created a school with ambition to deliver on the Chorus Trust ethos of outstanding achievement for all.
The school itself is situated on the outskirts of Eckington on the Derbyshire/Sheffield border, overlooking open countryside. The campus is arranged around a shrub-filled courtyard that enables easy access to outside spaces for all.
