Sale High School (formerly known as Jeff Joseph Sale Moor Technology College and Sale Secondary School) is a secondary school in Sale Moor, Greater Manchester, England. Its current headteacher is Adam Rogers[3] [4] In 2011 the school was awarded the Good Schools Guide Art & Design Award for the highest points score for girls, taking double award GCSE over 2008, 2009, and 2010 in all English schools.
School logo
[edit]The school's logo includes a representation of the dovecote, which was part of the buildings of Sale Old Hall and is now in Walkden Gardens, and a moor-cock, a play on Sale Moor and previously used on the Urban District Council logo.
Educational offerings
[edit]The school offers a wide range of subjects including GCSEs and vocational subjects. It maintains a strong system of pastoral support and support for students with special educational needs.[citation needed] Its 2009 Ofsted report noted that it is an improving school with high expectations of its students. In 2015 the school was inspected, and found to be good.[5] A short inspection in 2019 reaffirmed this result.[6]
Earlier schools called Sale High School
[edit]In the early part of the 20th century, a pair of private schools in Sale used the High School name: Sale High School for Girls, at Oaklands on Marsland Road, and the Sale, Brooklands & Ashton-upon-Mersey High School for Boys on Poplar Grove,[7] which became a feeder school for Manchester Grammar School (in 1908), shortened its name to Sale High School for Boys, and in 1936 moved to Woodbourne Road.[8] Alumni of the boys' school include playwright Robert Bolt[9] and novelist John Malcolm Andrews.[10]
