Alder Community High School

Headteacher: Mr. R. O'Regan

Alder Community High School opened on the site in Gee Cross in 2003.

Student numbers have increased significantly since we opened and we are now full and oversubscribed with around 800 students on roll. A school of this size is large enough to offer the full range of curriculum opportunities yet small enough to retain a community feel where staff can get to know everyone. Similarly, we have a truly comprehensive intake, ranging from very able students to those who need significant additional support, and we are equally proud of all of their achievements.

In 2006 we were designated as a specialist Maths and Computing College, a specialism that reflects our expertise in these areas and still allows students a free option choice at KS4. Similarly our specialist college status has meant that we can continue to invest in new technology and offer our staff and students outstanding ICT resources for teaching and learning.
