As a high performing school,
we offer a rich, broad and engaging education
for all our young people.
Culcheth High School is a highly successful and over-subscribed community school in the heart of semi-rural Warrington. We are recognised as “a good school” by OFSTED with many outstanding features. As a high performing school over a number of years, we genuinely strive to become the 'best that we can be' in all aspects of our work for young people and the community.
Our school's purpose is to inspire students to achieve and guide them to be confident, articulate and skilled citizens to enable them to thrive in a diverse British and global community. The school is committed to exacting high standards, to expecting excellence from all and to developing outstanding learning with staff and students. We are an ambitious and forward thinking institution where students' success lies at the heart of everything we do.

- "Pupils are proud to be part of this inclusive community. The school values are ‘respect, honesty and excellence’. Pupils live up to these values by working hard and respecting each other’s differences. They enjoy good, honest relationships with senior staff and teachers. Pupils’ behaviour matches the high expectations of their teachers. In lessons, pupils listen, join in enthusiastically when invited by their teacher and concentrate thoroughly on their work." - OFSTED
- "Pupils benefit from strong provision for personal development. They gain the knowledge they need to live safe and happy lives. Staff provide many extra-curricular opportunities. Many pupils are keen to take these opportunities to participate in sports teams and to learn about the wider world." - OFSTED
- "Subject leaders have designed curriculums well. They have thought carefully about the order in which they want pupils to learn key knowledge. Pupils build up their knowledge in a logical way. Curriculum design is particularly effective in some subjects. This is because there are highly ambitious opportunities for pupils to deepen their learning and meet their teachers’ high expectations for them to do well. Leaders know where the curriculum needs to be developed further and are in the process of making improvements." - OFSTED
