This is a key part of the Sixth Form’s ‘powerful curriculum’ offer which encourages students to engage in enrichment activities outside of their academic study. There were an incredible amount of opportunities available to students with external providers including NCS, Royal British Legion, Wilmslow Talking Newspaper and The Chamber of Commerce Employment Readiness programme, with internal offerings such as Bar Mock Trial, Young Enterprise, Model United Nations and an array of sports teams, to name just a few. Mrs Finemore-Lunn, Year 13 Student Manager and co-organiser of the Opportunities Fair said, “This year’s Fair had a real buzz; it was very pleasing to see the Sports Hall full of students excited at the prospect of getting involved with such a wide variety of activities. We are very proud of Sixth Form students who are always so giving of their time and committed to developing their skills, helping others and broadening their horizons”.

SANDBACH ARCHAEOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT Vince Devine & Jo Clark 1. SUMMARY Although the manor was recorded in the Domesday Survey of 1086, very little is known about Sandbach during the early medieval period. However, the survival of elaborate pre-Viking sculpture, in the form of crosses and grave slabs, indicates that Sandbach was an important religious centre during this period. By the late 16th century the town was granted the rights to hold a market and two fairs, all of which have continued into the present century. During the 19th century, a silk and shoe industry were established, and their commercial success was a significant factor in the growth of the town.

Weighing the options Wide-ranging opportunities Lorraine and Derek were open-minded when it came to choosing Whilst first impressions may mean a lot, Lorraine believes it is a secondary school for their sons. They had considered several important to look beyond these to the educational provision options before making their eventual choice, including mixed-sex offered. “The school building itself is very beautiful and imposing settings as well as considering private, but it was Sandbach that but what we appreciate more is the forward-thinking and ticked most of their boxes. “What we have found over the years is enriching ethos behind the physical facade.

  • Teacher of Science
    Application Pack for the post of Teacher of Science Teacher of Science Thank you for your interest in the above post. Sandbach School is an 11-16 Comprehensive School for boys that has a co-educational Sixth Form. In September 2011 Sandbach School became one of the first 24 Free Schools, directly funded by the DfE and working autonomously from the Local Authority. It serves the communities of Sandbach, Haslington, Elworth and surrounding parishes in Cheshire East. The school provides an inclusive education which goes well beyond curricular provision: blending traditions with innovation via both Year cohorts and a House system; prefects and a rigorous “colours” system; peer-mentoring and a strong pupil voice in an active School Council; Commemoration Day and Awards Ceremonies. The range of extra-curricular provision is outstanding, encompassing sport, the Arts, Combined Cadet Force and myriad clubs and activities. Extra-curricular relations are used positively to enhance in-class dynamics. We seek to recruit teaching staff with a philosophical commitment to outstanding comprehensive education both inside and outside the classroom. It is our belief that progress in all aspects of learning is affected by the quality of relationships forged within the school community, and that such relationships are unlikely to be maximised solely through the teaching situation. Having received a “Good” judgement in all categories from Ofsted in November 2014, we are ambitious to become an Outstanding School. We recognise the entitlement of all pupils to a high quality and equality of experience, provision, care and support. To that end we endeavour to marry all that we see as best in education development with all that is desirable from the traditions of our past.
