Crown Hills is a Comprehensive Secondary School for boys and girls aged 11 - 16 years. It is maintained by the LEA and is a centre for Community Education now often called “Lifelong Learning”. The Headteacher is in charge of the whole College and is officially called the Principal.

Crown Hills is a College with a very good reputation. Its exam results are very good and show signs of continued improvement. We have several national awards that help us deliver top quality education: we are a Training School (to develop teachers to a high standard), a Leading Edge School (we share nationally recognized good practice with other schools), we are an Excellence in Cities School (developing our gifted & talented youngsters and supporting all children to succeed) and have recently become a Specialist Sports College (to develop sporting excellence and health related fitness). We are able to recruit very high calibre staff and have gained the national award, Investors in People three times, for our development of those staff. It continues to build excellent links with parents, industry and the community at large.

The Secondary School age range (11-16) is a very important one in the lives of young people. Whilst they are with us they move from childhood into young adulthood and we aim to provide a supportive and caring environment, so that we can meet the needs of each student and help him or her to develop excellence both academically and socially.

As a Community College we cater for students from below school age to Senior Citizens. There could well be something here that we can offer to you as a learner in your own right. Come and see. Many of our parents are also students in the community side of the college. We welcome that involvement.

We look forward to your child joining the school and to welcoming you as one of our parents.
On behalf of the staff and governors of Crown Hills College.

Mrs B. Green.
Principal.
