The County High School Leftwich

The County High School Leftwich is a fully inclusive, co-educational, 11-16 school with approximately 1000 students, 60 teaching and 60 support staff. The school serves a mixed catchment area with a Published Admission Number of 196, though we are now significantly over-subscribed.

The School is a safe and calm, inclusive and positive community and workplace. Students enjoy and achieve during their time at this school. They leave as rounded individuals, aware of the wider-world, ready to make a positive contribution to it and fully equipped to flourish in it, whilst having maximised their academic potential. The school strives to ensure that colleagues are motivated, happy, supported and derive satisfaction from their role.

An academic Curriculum is an opportunity for and expectation of all our students, further enriched by opportunities beyond the timetable. The school’s curriculum endeavours to develop students':
· Comprehension and command of knowledge and skills
· Character
· Creativity and imagination

Our broad, balanced and enriched curriculum promotes the enjoyment of learning, motivating students to gain the knowledge, skills and qualifications enabling them to realise their potential and thus exercise choice and control in their personal and working lives. We believe that every student’s experience of success contributes to their personal happiness.

The school prides itself on a sustained reputation for outstanding academic performance in a proudly inclusive learning environment. From 2016 to 2019, students achieved progress described as ‘above average’ and in two of these years students achieved progress ‘well above average’, as described by the Department for Education (DfE). In 2019, students achieved a Progress 8 Score of +0.80. In 2020 students achieved progress in line with previous years. In 2017, the school was awarded a National Pupil Premium Award by the DfE, further demonstrating our commitment to ensuring all students achieve their academic potential.
