The Derby High School EXCELLENCE, TRADITION, IMAGINATION
An oversubscribed 11-16 Co-Educational Comprehensive School (937 students currently on roll) situated in the North West of England in the heart of Bury, Greater Manchester.
In 2014 the OFSTED report rated Leadership and Management as OUTSTANDING:
“The leadership of the school is outstanding and is rigorously focused on raising standards.”
The school was rated GOOD in all other areas.
“At The Derby High School we strive for EXCELLENCE in all we do. We are proud of the history and the TRADITIONs that have helped define our school we challenge our students to work hard, to make the most of the opportunities that our school offers and to use their IMAGINATION to truly think and believe they can be the best.”
We are a school that offers amazing opportunities for our students. Operating as a Science and Arts College since 2003 we have fantastic facilities. Our multimillion pound Sports Hall, EXCEL, opened in 2015 complementing our expansive playing fields and pitches. Our bespoke performing Arts building, INSPIRE, exudes creativity incorporating media suites, a large drama studio and a sprung dance floor. Our latest innovation has been our DISCOVER, state of the art science labs, opened in 2017.
We offer a huge range of external excursions for all curriculum areas, including to local colleges and universities, challenging stereotypes, raising aspirations and engendering a sense of awe and wonder from the world around us. We are currently engaged in the development and design of a Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Maths garden. Our curriculum is dynamic, challenging and engaging, enabling our students to excel in all areas.
Built on the 7R philosophy we ensure our students are Ready, Respectful, Resilient, Resourceful, Reasonable, Responsible and create the Right Impression. We have a school community ethos that unites us in common values. We celebrate our diverse intake putting equality at the heart of all we do. In 2014 our OFSTED report said:
“Students’ behaviour is good. The school provides a safe and harmonious environment for learning.”
There is a strong commitment to developing independent learners with the skills and experiences to thrive in a modern world. Through extensive opportunities to develop leadership skills we believe we are preparing our students to become tomorrow’s leaders.
We are a school where all matter and our pastoral care for all ensures our students feel safe and happy. Staff are overwhelmingly proud to work at the school.
