Year 6 – Welcome to EKCSS!

Get ready to achieve your ambitions!

EKC Sheppey Secondary is here to nurture every student’s unique spark and enable your child to achieve their ambitions.


Whether academic or professional specialism, further study or a chosen career, our curriculum is rich, rigorous and relevant, and there’s a pathway for everyone.

We’re here to champion mastery (not just milestones), fuel aspiration and achievement, and cheer students on every step of the way. EKC Sheppey Secondary is a learning community where every student thrives… where belonging meets brilliance.

Our Commitment to Students

With our wealth of experience in primary education, including on Sheppey, we know the critical importance of transition – building those very important relationships, get to know their peers – and will ensure every child feels really confident before they start their new school.   

We’ve sent details of our transition event to you and your child’s primary school.

We can’t wait to meet you all from the 8th to the 11th July for your exciting first steps… it’s one small step for Year 6 and one giant leap for EKC Sheppey Secondary!

This project is designed to celebrate everything our thriving and vibrant island has to offer, from historical achievements to nature to our local heroes—the choice is yours!

There are lots of exciting prizes to win, and by entering, you are in with a chance to have your work displayed at IslandWorks, The Dockyard Church later in the year!
