Howden is a small 11-16 school serving its community in the East Riding, with just over 700 students on roll. As part of The Consortium Academy Trust, we are ambitious about the future – creating learning environments and excellence in teaching and learning that provide our children and young people with the best chance at a successful future.
At Howden we set and maintain high standards and expectations in terms of teaching, aspirations, behaviour and appearance. We believe that all young people have a right to a high-quality educational experience, which provides the appropriate conditions for learning and helps them to achieve their full potential.

Today was the turn of the y7 football teams starting with the girls who performed brilliantly in the Tigers Trust Inclusive Futsal Tournament, narrowly losing in the final after winning 7 of their 9 games. Lots of goals scored and lots of fun had by all. Followed by the boys who competed well in their 7 a side competition, winning 2 and drawing 2 of their 5 games but narrowly losing out on qualification for the next round by 1 goal. Another great effort from the boys.
Today, we were honoured to welcome Mr O'Brien, who gave a moving performance of The Last Post as we observed our two-minute silence in remembrance of those who made the ultimate sacrifice. The Consortium Academy Trust
