About Carr Hill High School:

?
Carr Hill is situated in the market town of Kirkham in the Fylde, just over a mile from exit 3 of the M55 and with very easy transport links from a wide radius in the north west of England. Kirkham is just 9 miles from the coastal town of Lytham St Annes and an easy drive to the Lake District or Trough of Bowland. Kirkham is also served by Kirkham and Wesham train station.

The school is 11-16 and has an average of 180 students in each year group. Students come from over 25 different primary schools though there are a core group of feeder schools. Historically there are a significant number of army families due to the proximity of the barracks at Weeton which will have a new regiment in summer 2024. As the only state school in the immediate area, Carr Hill is a truly comprehensive school with a wide range of ability and social background.

We aim high at Carr Hill and expect high standards of behaviour and academic effort from all our pupils. We believe in encouraging our pupils to take responsibility for their actions, decisions and their future education to foster a culture of commitment to lifelong learning. We believe every pupil is an individual that can achieve extraordinary goals and we work hard for them to achieve these; however, we expect our pupils to work even harder for their future. This is their responsibility that we will support them with every step of the way.

At Carr Hill our mission is to provide a high-quality education that prepares students for the challenges of tomorrow. With a focus on pursuing excellence, we strive to create an inclusive environment where every student can achieve their full potential, through our Carr Hill values of 'Commitment, Aspiration, Resilience and Respect.'

We are committed to the pursuit of outstanding teaching and learning alongside the highest possible academic, personal and moral standards. This commitment is built upon a shared belief in hard work, self-reflection and a culture of respect and support for others.

We expose our pupils to culture beyond their experience to build opportunities and develop a strong sense of self-worth and humility to make positive contributions now, and in the future, to the communities to which they belong.
