History

The site of the current School was excavated in 2008 revealing continuous habitation dating back to Neolithic times. Enclosures included a full stone age burial, significant quantities of Roman coinage and a Saxon smithing area. The school has been gathering materials to set up a museum of local history. Planned exhibits will include Stone Age, Bronze Age, Celtic, Romano-British, Anglo-Saxon, Medieval and early modern materials. It also aims to tell the story of Eye airfield and the role of the school during World War II.

The school was founded in the 15th century. Its original form predates the grammar school which was founded c. 1495. A variety of sites have been occupied by the School which has existed as a National School, a County School and was joined by a Secondary Modern in 1935. The Grammar School was closed in the late 1960s. The school became a Comprehensive and became known as Hartismere shortly thereafter. The school was temporarily closed during the summer term of the 2019-20 academic year due to the COVID-19 pandemic before reopening in September. The School was closed again due to the pandemic in the spring term of the academic year of 2020-21.

Academy Status

Hartismere High School became Suffolk's first Foundation School in 2009. This meant that its Governing Body took ownership of the land and buildings of the school and became the employer of its own staff and its own admissions authority.

Following this it became the first school in Suffolk to attain converter Academy on 1 September 2010. It became one of the first secondary schools to do so in England on the same day.Шаблон:Citation needed At that point only schools graded outstanding by Ofsted were permitted to do so.Шаблон:Citation needed

The Hartismere Family of Schools

Hartismere School was given Sponsor Academy status on 1 September 2010, the first in England to receive this status. However, it was only in 2016 that the multi-Academy Trust was set up. This became known as the Hartismere Family of Schools. On 1 May 2016 Benjamin Britten Music Academy and Centre of Excellence in mathematics became part of the Hartismere Family of Schools. On 1 May 2018 Woods Loke Primary joined the Hartismere Family. This was followed by Somerleyton Primary on 1 January 2019.

Ofsted inspections

Hartismere High School was regarded as a Satisfactory School by Ofsted prior to its 2006 inspection. During that year it was graded as Good before two successive Inspections, the first in 2010 and the second in 2014 graded the school as Outstanding. The school is now considered one of the best in Suffolk, in 2021 former student Niles Schilder called the teachers at the school ‘fabulous’ and ‘very supportive.’

The Hartismere Hundred

The School motto of serving is seen by its staff and children as embodied in The Hartismere Hundred. This is the system by which the school supports one hundred charities annually and seeks to raise at least £100000 rotationally. It harks back to the geographical Hartismere Hundred of the Doomsday Book. Scholars are introduced to this form of service in the first year of Lower School through supporting Guide Dogs for the Blind.Шаблон:Citation needed
