Welcome to our website.

Driffield School is a large 11-18 Comprehensive School which offers education for 11-19 year old students living in Driffield and the surrounding areas.

Students at Driffield School succeed and succeed well. Attainment at all levels of ability is rising year by year and we are rightly proud of the achievements of our students and the excellent support and opportunities they receive from staff. We have high expectations from our students and we esteem the qualities of tolerance, courtesy and hard work in the daily life of our school. Whilst our students are very successful academically we also regard the position of broader educational opportunities equally important. Our students are able to benefit from a wide range of activities which help them develop personally, socially and culturally, and prepare then to become responsible citizens of the 21st Century. This aspect of our work is reflected in Teaching and Learning in the classroom and is enhanced by a vibrant programme of extra curricular activities, exchanges and visits in the areas of sport, drama, music, foreign visits and much more. In short, we seek to provide an environment within which each child can feel secure and to which each student, whatever their strengths or abilities can make a contribution. Students rise to the challenge of our high expectations of work, behaviour, and discipline and enjoy being a part of this school because they know they are valued.

We are a real community built upon foundations of trust, honesty and mutual respect. Our relationships with parents form the bedrock upon which each student’s success is built. We look forward to working with all parents and other partners in order to enhance further the many opportunities offered to the young people we serve and we hope that everyone shares our pride in their outstanding achievements.
