Hilbre High School is a secondary modern school, located in West Kirby, Wirral, United Kingdom. The school holds Specialist Humanities College status.
The school was founded as a girls' school in 1966 and merged with Hoylake Parade Boys School in 1973 to become co-educational. The school has been recently rebuilt, with a City Learning Centre being added on the site. Reconstruction took place in phases over a period of a few years (starting approx 2001) and has recently been completed.[1]
The school is run by miss levenson. Since she took charge exam results have incresed and increased to were they are now (2008) were 78% of students got 5 GCSE's A*-C, and our ofsted report was Good for this year.
An new feature to hilbre is a new "drama theatre" which was funded by the schools humanities status and was designed by the music department to be used as a recording studeo. (i mean drama isn't even humanities?!?)
However the music department needs more funding, as they only recieve about £800 a year and considering that an average keybord costs £100 so that £800 doesn't go very far!!!
