Thank you for considering a position at Standish Community High School. I am happy to recommend Standish to you as a high performing and successful school with an intake of 1300 students. In our most recent Section 8 Ofsted inspection carried out in October 2021, we retained the judgement of ‘good’.
We are a thriving 11-16 school, set on an extensive and well-resourced campus in Standish, Wigan. We are a vibrant, caring and forward-thinking school, where the achievement and personal development of each student go hand in hand.
At Standish Community High School, we are committed to the highest levels of academic achievement, personal growth and lifelong fulfilment. Our motto ‘Be Outstanding’ captures our determination and belief that all our students deserve the very best education and opportunities that enable them to flourish and grow in confidence and develop the skills and expertise, to become happy and well-rounded, successful individuals.
We offer an outstanding curriculum tailored to our students needs. Students are taught by academic specialists with a passion for their subject, creating an environment where our students believe anything is achievable. We place great emphasis on creating leaders, whilst recognising the need to work co-operatively with others.
I consider it a tremendous privilege to be the Headteacher and lead such an incredibly well-motivated and inspiring team of teachers and support staff. We are seeking applicants who align with our culture of mutual respect, a positive outlook and a ‘can do’ approach.
