I would like to offer you a very warm welcome to the Mossbourne Herd Lane Academy, where we provide every child with the opportunity to fulfil their fullest potential, academically, socially, emotionally by promoting an enhancing and inspring educational experience that goes beyond the curriculum.
Please take a look at our video which shows you a day in the life of our wonderful school! Our school is located in the heart of Corringham, a village in Essex, and we are proud that our school reflects and celebrates our community which we have served since 1922. We are highly ambitious, passionate and determined to achieve success in every aspect of school life.
All of our staff and Governors share this vision and work together to make sure this remains a reality. At Herd Lane Academy, we nurture happy, balanced, confident and inquisitive children aiming to be the best than we can be.

Governing body (6 current, 2 former)
iAcademy trust: local governing body and trust board.1 governor is linked to a profile (all confirmed).
