Upton-by-Chester High is a highly successful, 11-18 co-educational High School with over 200 staff and 1750 learners on roll. We are located just over 2 miles from Chester city centre.

Our school motto is 'Learning to Shape the Future'. This really does capture what is at the heart of the school. We undertake that every learner – whatever their previous attainment – will gain life-long enrichment and learning from the time they spend with us at Upton-by-Chester High School. Our approach is to provide opportunities that will capture the imagination of our learners and allow them to develop their knowledge, skills and understanding to be successful academically and socially. We will provide traditional academic subjects and vocational opportunities so we can support the learning needs of all our young people.

Academic performance at Upton-by-Chester High School is very strong. The school has received exceptional results over recent years that have allowed learners to realise their dreams as they have moved forward on their own learning journey.

Upton-by-Chester High School also has an 'Outstanding' Sixth Form. As one of the largest and most successful Sixth Forms in Chester, we are able to offer an extensive range of courses and opportunities, and, as well as attracting many learners from other local schools, most Upton-by-Chester High School learners stay at the school for seven years to complete their education.

I am committed, as the Headteacher of the school, to ensure that Upton-by-Chester High School continues with all that is positive about the school whilst ensuring that we are always looking at new ways to maximise the experiences for and potential of our wonderful learners.

Our website, along with our Prospectus, will give you just a flavour of what our school is about. I would encourage you to book an appointment with myself or one of my Senior Leadership Team as we would be delighted and proud to show you around our exceptional school.
