Our School

As a high performing school, we offer a rich, broad and engaging education for all our young people. Culcheth High School is a successful mixed community school currently catering for around 1100 11-16 year olds. Our current examination performance places us consistently as one of Warrington’s highest performing schools. Not only do students at Culcheth attain much higher success ratios than students nationally, they also make excellent progress from their starting points. The school’s aim is to get the very best from each student; not only through    superb teaching and learning but also by encouraging involvement in extra-curricular and community activities.

The school enjoys an enviable reputation within its locality. It is extremely popular and has been signifcantly oversubscribed in recent years with the school roll growing. It attracts students from more than 25 different primary schools within four different local education authorities. We are part of Warrington Local Authority which provides a supportive and professional advisory service. 

Our most recent Ofsted report (May 2014) gave us a grade 2 rating (“good”). We are delighted that the improvements made in the school have been given public acknowledgement. The school was rated “good” in all major areas. Inspectors praised teaching and learning (“a good proportion of lessons are now outstanding”), personal development (“behaviour and attitudes to learning are good”) and leadership and management. We were pleased with the report but not complacent. We want to improve further and our ultimate objective is to achieve Ofsted’s highest award of ‘Outstanding School’.
