About

My name is Chris Hunt and I am incredibly proud to be the Headteacher at Clarion, a school which reminds me of my own secondary school, one which embraced its diverse community and acted as a social leveller allowing us all to flourish.

Our purpose is to ensure we develop well-rounded pupils who achieve great grades and have great character through our high standards and expectations. Our no phone policy is a key part of delivering disruption free learning, ensuring students have the best opportunity to learn.

Clarion students are resilient and determined, focused and driven, qualities which are central to success.

During the disruptions to education over the last couple of years, our students have continued to make exceptional progress, moving on after Year 11 to great destinations including our own Sixth Form and local colleges, and our Sixth Formers have progressed to a range of Russell Group university courses, apprenticeships and employment.

In the school’s own words, from the school website.

Governing body (18 current, 1 former)

iAcademy trust: local governing body and trust board.

12 governors are linked to a profile (all confirmed).

Governors marked “Confirmed same person” have exactly the same forename and surname as the only officer of that name at the school’s own academy trust company on the Companies House register, so we treat them as the same person. The governance record itself comes from DfE.
