Stocksbridge High School

We are an ambitious and inclusive 11 to 16 comprehensive school firmly rooted in our local community. You will find us to be an open, friendly and welcoming with great pupils and a dedicated staff.

Every one of the young people we serve is entitled to thrive at school so that they may leave skilled, qualified and confident to make a success of their next steps in life. This is achieved through high quality leadership, teaching and support from our staff so that all pupils learn and progress well. Working at Stocksbridge High School means that you will always hold young people in high regard and have nothing but the highest of expectations for their learning, conduct and aspiration.   

Opportunities for professional development and for sharing practice within the school and across the trust enable staff to continually develop their skills and experience. This ambition is evidenced in our recent improvements in achievement and increasing roll; we are now oversubscribed in Y7. 

We are here to make a difference to the young people and families of Stocksbridge and we aim to be recognised as outstanding in this endeavour. It is an exciting time to join our school and if you share that ambition and determination I look forward to receiving your application
