Headteacher's Welcome

I am delighted that you have taken the time to visit our website and feel privileged to introduce and welcome you to Kingsway Park High School.

7r301137 fr 4We belong to the Altus Education Partnership Multi Academy Trust. Being part of Altus provides a wide range of opportunities for staff and students to work across a network of academies developing and sharing learning and practice. One of our key partners is Rochdale Sixth Form College, providing excellence in post-sixteen provision. We look forward to collectively realising the vision of the Trust - to advance education in the borough of Rochdale and its surrounds so that young people lead happy and fulfilling lives and make positive differences to their communities and society.

Kingsway Park High School is proud to be a vibrant, inclusive and diverse school with approximately 1350 students, 47 different nationalities and 25 spoken languages. We have state-of-the-art facilities and we provide an individualised and unique curriculum offer for all students regardless of their starting point, gender, ethnicity, faith or need.

We care for, nurture and develop the whole child while improving aspirations, learning and achievement for all. In addition to ensuring each student’s academic potential, we also prepare them to be socially responsible citizens who can flourish in society and give back to their local community. We seek to remove any barriers of inequity, which prevent equality of opportunity so that all students can aspire and be inspired to realise their dreams.

Our school has soul and a true 'family feel'. We value our students and recognise that success looks and feels different for each one of them. However, what is consistent is our team of passionate, enthusiastic and committed staff who work relentlessly in the pursuit of excellence for the students and community we serve.

It is an exciting phase in the schools' history with the recently opened Sissay building and lots of positive change. Since my appointment as Headteacher in January 2023 the school has been on a journey of continuous improvement following a period of transition. It is my privilege and honour to be entrusted with the stewardship of Kingsway Park High School, leading and elevating the school on the next stage of its journey. I am dedicated, focused and committed to inspiring learning and to realising our vision to create a world class learning experience for all students.

Finally, I recognise that there is no substitute for seeing the school for yourself and speaking to our fantastic students and staff. There will be many opportunities for you to come into our school and form a strong link and partnership with us. If you have any questions about the school or would like a tour, please do not hesitate to contact us:

As part of our school you don’t just attend, you belong!

Mr S Ward
Headteacher
