Tytherington High School & Specialist Science College is a successful and highly oversubscribed 11-18 inclusive community comprehensive school of 1200 pupils serving north-east Macclesfield, Bollington and the surrounding rural areas.

The school's first concern is the welfare and happiness of the children in our care. We pride ourselves on providing a friendly and supportive environment through three house communities. Each house provides a stable environment, promoting hard work, a healthy lifestyle, mutual respect and success through teamwork.

We strive to ensure that all pupils have the best possible chance in achieving their full potential as learners. We have very high standards and expectations which all members of our learning community are required to maintain.

The most effective educational experience is achieved where there is a strong partnership between home and school and we place great emphasis on regular communication with parents.

Academic achievement is central. We are committed to excellence in all areas of our curriculum and lead the development of cutting edge learning opportunities, especially in our 'specialist' subjects of Science, Mathematics and ICT, (Information & Communication Technology).

 Extra-curricular life is also tremendously important and all pupils are encouraged to participate fully in the wide range of opportunities on offer including sport, music drama and the arts.

We are confident that at Tytherington we offer the opportunities, professional guidance and support to achieve the best possible academic results and develop self-confidence to succeed in whatever paths students follow in the future.
