St Germanus' Church is an active Church of England church in the village of Faulkbourne in Essex, England. Much of the existing church dates to the 12th and 13th centuries. It has been Grade I listed since 1967. The church is dedicated to Saint Germanus, a bishop of Auxerre in Late Antique Gaul, who visited Britain to suppress the Pelagian heresy in about 429. The church may have been dedicated to Saint Germanus because it was consecrated on his feast day, 31 July.

In October 2006 the previous school (John Bramston) was graded 4 by Ofsted, meaning 'Inadequate' and as a result the school was put under special measures. In March 2015 the school was given grade 1 by Ofsted, meaning 'Outstanding'. A new head, Mike O'Sullivan was appointed Easter 2007, replacing the longstanding former headteacher the late Ted Rowley. John Bramston School became Maltings Academy on 1 September 2008. A new Principal, Mr John Szynal was appointed in the spring term of 2010. The school has a principal and executive principal.
