Cheshire

I wish you a warm welcome to Tarporley High School and Sixth Form College. Tarporley High is an outstanding 11-18 academy school at the heart of a rural Cheshire community that extends between Chester to the west and Nantwich to the east. Our school vision is “Aspire, Learn, Achieve”. Our aim is to provide the very best learning and personal development opportunities for every young person in the communities that we serve. Our teaching and support staff are highly qualified, very skilled, and together share the strongest dedication to ensuring that all our students are safe, wholeheartedly enjoy their learning, and achieve to their full potential. My priority as Headteacher is for every student to enjoy excellent teaching and pastoral support, to be valued and respected as an individual, and to play a full and active part in school life. The day-to-day atmosphere of our school is warm, friendly, orderly and purposeful. We are keen for all our students to develop as confident, responsible and considerate individuals who excel and make a lasting contribution within and beyond their school life. We are extremely proud of their outstanding achievements in all walks of life. Our partnership with parents and carers is very important to us, and we will work closely with you throughout your child’s time with us to nurture their aspirations, their learning and their achievement. I hope that our website will inform you, inspire you and give you a taste of the very special qualities of our school. Prospective students and their families are very welcome to come and see us in action during the school day. We are committed to supporting all our students maximise their huge potential, both academically and personally during their time at Tarporley High School and Sixth Form College; creating memories that will be carried with them throughout their lives. Our enthusiastic teachers share a love of teaching and learning.

The Rochester Grammar School is a high-performing secondary which is part of the TSA Trust where diversity is celebrated as we create a safe and inspiring place for children to learn; where their rights are respected and they are able to develop their talents and abilities to their full potential. We started our RRSA journey in September 2021 and have achieved the Bronze Right Respecting School Award (RRSA) and are now working towards achieving our Silver Award. The RRSA (Rights Respecting Schools Award) is awarded by Unicef. Unicef is the world’s leading organisation working for children and young people and their rights. In 1989, governments across the world agreed that all children have the same rights by adopting the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC). These rights are based on what a child needs to survive, grow, participate and fulfil their potential. The Award recognises achievement in putting the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child at the heart of a school’s planning, policies and practice. All children are taught about their rights at the Rochester Grammar School. Rights are the focus each week during form time with key discussion points and reflections activities. We also have a steering group where children come together to discuss their Rights. We celebrate our diversity as a school community as we endeavour to develop young people who are fully cognisant of their rights whilst respecting the rights of all members of our school community. As we work towards the SILVER accreditation we have: Weekly form assemblies where students use RRSA’s resources to explore the articles from the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. These are linked to mental health, online safety, identity or equality and other topics. Planned for each form to create their own Form Charter that encourages children to behave in a 'rights respecting' manner. Established a 'Steering Group' of adults and children who help to drive the programme across the school. This captures the voice of the child and adds to the important jobs our Student Leaders already do. Undertaken staff CPD to secure a commitment from the whole staff to the principles of the RRSA and the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. Conducted a planning review: We are in the process of reviewing the KS3 curriculum to embed issues and themes of the UN Convention across our subject areas so that the children visit and revisit important concepts throughout their learning journey.
