In May 2010 a full OFSTED Inspection concluded that Cheadle High School is a “good school in which many aspects are now outstanding”. We are delighted to report that the 2010 results demonstrate that the school is sustaining the high level of achievement obtained by our students in previous years.
The proportion of students achieving A*-C grades in Maths was 67% and in English Language the proportion of students achieving A*-C was also very good, at 68%. In English Literature this was 98%. Overall the proportion of students who were entered for 5 or more GCSE, and achieved 5 or more A*-C grades, was 61%. Similarly, the pass rate for 5 or more A*-C including English and Maths was 58%.
This year 100% of all Year 11 have achieved 1 or more passes at A*-G pass grades and 96 % have achieved 5+ A*-G grades. The excellent results continue to reflect the judgement by OFSTED that there is a high quality of teaching and learning evident at Cheadle High School, for young people of all abilities, interests and aptitudes.
It was formed by the merging of Cheadle Grammar School and Mackenzie Secondary Modern in 1975. Although it originally had a sixth form it longer does. There is now a sixth form college called Moorlands Sixth Form, which is on the original Grammar school site.
