About
School overview

I am delighted to welcome you to Pakefield High School. As the newest secondary school in Lowestoft, opened in September 2011, we are proud of our modern facilities, excellent equipment, and dedicated staff. Our students and staff take pride in being part of both our school and the wider community. At Pakefield, our core values of Connect, Achieve and, Nurture shape everything we do. These values help our students grow during their time with us and guide them throughout their lives: Beyond the classroom, our students engage in a rich variety of activities that build cultural capital and spark passion. From international trips to after-school clubs, from sports to curriculum competitions, from Duke of Edinburgh to Debating – there's something for everyone at Pakefield. Our ambitious and evolving curriculum challenges students to reach their full potential. We value hard work, resilience, and commitment. High attendance, focused effort in lessons, and thoughtful completion of homework are all part of our culture of achievement.
