Curriculum
The Skinners' Company has been involved in education since the Middle Ages and we now have around 7,500 pupils under our care today. We are proud to support an extremely diverse family of schools which encompasses primary and secondary, all ability and selective, state funded and independent, urban and rural. The eight schools in the family are in west Kent, on the Kent coast and in North London. We have a strong belief in the power of education to promote social mobility and address disadvantage. They put students at the centre of all that they do and have a commitment to obtaining the best outcomes possible for each student in our eight schools. The aim of the schools is to provide all the young people with the opportunity to make the most of their talents and fulfil their potential. To do that they ensure that the schools have first-class teaching, management and leadership, support each other through collaboration and sharing of expertise and good practice, and are supported and held to account by high-quality governing bodies.
