About Us
Welcome to The Gilberd School website. We hope your visit here will leave you with an insight into who we are and what we are about. A hugely popular school with a rich heritage and distinct culture, we are always heavily oversubscribed. It is our firm belief that the richest educational experience comes from quality and breadth of opportunity. We strive tirelessly to offer the broadest range of outstanding learning experiences to the young people of north Colchester and beyond. We have the highest expectations of behaviour, teaching and learning and we uphold these expectations without exception. We are proud to have exceptional facilities within generous grounds and a highly qualified and dedicated staff. We are proud of every Gilberdian and the exceptional outcomes they achieve.
