Welcome to Hasmonean Multi Academy Trust

Hasmonean Boys’ and Girls’ Schools are among the top performing comprehensive schools in the country. Our students attain consistently high standards in their GCSE and A Level examinations and the vast majority go on to university education and a wide variety of careers. We have excellent Progress 8 scores and the highest expectations are shared by students, staff and parents. Hasmonean (which until May 2019 was one school) has been ranked in the top ten of non-selective state schools by The Times for the last 8 years. Hasmonean Multi Academy Trust comprises the two schools on separate campuses.

Our first-class staff is dedicated to making a happy and purposeful school for our students, which will enable them to flourish. Every student is valued, along with their family. We aim to maximise each student’s potential within a caring, disciplined and ordered environment, and, in return, expect all students to work hard and to respect and support the values on which our community is based. The school combines the secular with the religious within a Jewish framework. In addition to academic rigour, our ethos incorporates values such as kindness and supporting charities or those in a less fortunate situation. There is a clear expectation, modelled by our staff, that everyone, regardless of their background should be treated with dignity, courtesy, kindness and respect.
