OUR GSP PARTNER SCHOOL:SIR CHRISTOPHER HATTON SCHOOL, NORTHAMPTON, UK
Sir Christopher Hatton School is a co-educational comprehensive school in Wellingborough, Northampton shire, England named after Sir Christopher Hatton a prominent Tudor politician and Courtier of Queen Elizabeth I. .
Origin:
The school was formed in 1983 by the amalgamation of Breeze hill Girls School and Westfield Boys School on the Breeze hill site. In 2008 it had a school roll of 1,163, of which 137 were in the Sixth Form. It is a Foundation School. The amalgamation was the result of Wellingborough Council’s attempt to prune the amount of secondary schools. The Westfield site was eventually sold as prime housing stock land.
Historical background:
When the school was founded a suitable name was required to reflect the school’s aspirations and ambitions, and also identify it with the town and county. Sir Christopher Hatton had strong connections with Northampton shire and with Wellingborough in particular.
How the link was created:
We forged the link back in 2006 by looking on the British Council’s website to find a school to link with Mrs. Ruth Batchelor and Mrs. Janice Ferraz made the initial contact with our school and we were invited over to visit Hatton
