Cheadle Hulme School is a coeducational private day school in Cheadle Hulme, Greater Manchester, England, for pupils aged 3 to 18.[5] It is a member of the Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference.[6]
Founded in 1855 as the Manchester Warehousemen and Clerks' Orphan Schools, it sent pupils to an existing school in Shaw Hall, Flixton, before it moved into its own premises in Park Place, Ardwick, in 1861, and to its current location Cheadle Hulme in 1869.
The school became independent in 1976 when the Labour government abolished the direct grant system.[7]
The school grounds covers 83 acres,[5] and has over 1,500 pupils. Its educational experience is built upon the three pillars of being "Academic, Altruistic and Active".[8]
The most recent inspection report[9] commended the school for its inclusive, values-driven ethos and the diverse and enriching educational experiences it offers to all pupils. The report commented that "the school's 'Waconian Values'[10] of resilience, integrity, endeavour, contribution and compassion are central to how the school operates". It also highlighted the school's co-curricular programme as a significant strength.
