Based in the market town of Wednesbury, West Midlands, Stuart Bathurst Catholic High School is a secondary school in the Catholic tradition, with around 900 pupils. This makes Stuart Bathurst smaller than the average school of its type, although it does still run its own 6th form. The school’s catchment area is extremely culturally and economically diverse, a fact reflected in its student intake. Although the vast majority of the school's teaching takes place on-site, off-site provision is offered at a number of different local sites for pupils studying specific subjects.
