Priti Patel, Member of Parliament for Witham, recently visited Honywood School in Coggeshall to meet with Headteacher James Saunders to discuss the strong leadership the school provides pupils on aspiration and personal development, alongside its commitment to ensuring pupils are equipped with the skills, confidence and values they need to succeed.
During the visit, Priti discussed the initiatives in place to encourage engagement, responsibility, and ambition among students and how the school works closely with families and the wider community.
Speaking after the visit, Priti said:
“It is always a pleasure to visit Honywood School and meet with Mr Saunders to discuss the school’s ethos and the important work being done to support students. Schools play a vital role in shaping young people’s character, confidence and aspirations and it was inspiring to see the strong values that underpin life at Honywood. I regularly visit our local schools and I am committed to ensuring that students across the Witham constituency have access to schools that nurture ambition, promote positive values and prepare them well for the future.”
The visit forms part of Priti Patel’s ongoing work with schools across the Witham constituency, supporting educational engagement, strong values and opportunities that help young people thrive.
