About Southlands High School
Southlands High School is an improving school. Our motto ‘Endeavour for Excellence’ demonstrates that we expect all stakeholders, staff and students to drive for the highest standards in everything they do. Southlands High School is striving to be ‘Better’ than ever before as a successful and inclusive school that works in close partnership with families and the community to achieve the best for our young people.
In December 2017, we were designated as a converter academy within the Mosaic Academy Trust with Standish High School and Golborne Primary School and look forward to going from strength to strength in our partnership. The Mosaic Academy Trust as an organisation seeks to value each and every member of the community and to become a family of schools that will welcome other schools and be a Trust whose chief aim is to become stronger as a whole than by the sum of its parts. We seek for our students to be Successful Learners, Confident Individuals and Responsible Citizens. The Trust has a Trade Union Recognition Agreement in place.
From our most recent inspection, in February 2024, the report highlights that we are highly ambitious for our pupils to achieve. We strive to meet the needs of the individual child so that they feel safe, secure and happy and enjoy their time at Southlands. We also aim to provide the highest standards of teaching and learning so that students are able to progress and fulfil their potential. We believe that every child should be given opportunities to develop their leadership skills as part of their growth and development in order to prepare them for adult life. Many of our students go on to be very successful in all aspects of life with a number attending some of the leading universities in the country. We are committed in our drive for academic excellence whilst offering a wide range of extra-curricular activities and opportunities so that our students can achieve educational success and develop fully as individuals.
We recognise that all students have the right to the highest quality education that will equip them with the qualifications they need to progress to college, university or their chosen career. Every decision we take to create our successful school comes from a firmly held staff belief that we can always strive to be ‘better’ than before.
At Southlands we are very proud of our caring school community and place great emphasis on high standards of behaviour and respect for all through our Southlands Standard.
