History

Originally established as Hassenbrook Secondary Modern School in 1952, [2] [3] it later became a comprehensive school administered by Thurrock Council.

In September 2011 it converted to academy status and was renamed Hassenbrook Academy. In September 2016 the school became part of the Ortu Federation and was renamed Ortu Hassenbrook Academy. [4] In March 2022 Sally Feeney became permanent headteacher, having served in the position "temporarily" for a year until she had gained the required qualifications. [5]
