We hope to see you there.

Our students have been taking part in powerful acts of remembrance this November.

From placing flowers on the graves of fallen soldiers at Chingford Mount Cemetery to proudly laying a wreath on Remembrance Sunday, each moment was filled with reflection, respect and pride.

We are incredibly proud of all those who represented the school and helped us honour those who served.

We work with our students to make a big school feel small, and that every young person knows that they are supported, even before they walk through the door.

Our form tutors, and Pastoral Team play a big part in their daily lives, starting with a form time session in the morning, full of activities to support well being, personal development and revision skills.

Along side a warm welcome in September we host a number of events throughout the Year 6 Summer term to support the transition into the Chingford School Community.

Earlier this term, our Year 13 Geographers visited Sheringham in Norfolk for their residential field trip. Students explored the coastline, carried out fieldwork and enjoyed time discovering the town together.

They represented CFS brilliantly throughout. Visit our website to read more about this trip and to hear more from the Geography Department on upcoming opportunities and updates.
