GLC Gateway Academy

It is with great pride that I mark my eleventh year as Headteacher of The Gateway Academy. Each day, working with the young people of Thurrock is both a privilege and a joy.

At The Gateway Academy, we hold ourselves to the highest standards, guided by our core values of Responsibility, Resilience, Compassion, and Aspiration. We expect both staff and students to bring passion and energy to all they do, helping to foster a community that is diverse, inclusive, and fair. Through exceptional teaching, outstanding pastoral care, and a wealth of resources, we empower our students to realise their full potential. Our commitment to removing barriers to learning remains unwavering—ensuring that no student is ever left behind.
