In a significant move aimed at expanding educational excellence, Nazeing Primary School officially joined Scholars' Education Trust, 1st September 2025.

Headteacher Ms J Pomfret described the transition as “an exciting step forward” that opens up access to a wider professional network and broader learning opportunities for both pupils and teachers. Parents and carers will notice little immediate change to daily routines, but can expect enhanced enrichment activities, leadership stability, and a continued commitment to nurturing the whole child.
