Specialist College
The specialist school programme helps schools, in partnership with private sector sponsors, and supported by additional government funding, to establish distinctive identities through their chosen specialisations and achieve their targets to raise standards.
Specialist schools have a focus on those subjects relating to their chosen specialisations but must also meet the national curriculum requirements and deliver a broad and balanced education to all students.
Hartford High School is one of the minorities of schools that have been awarded dual specialisms: Languages and Sports.
