It is a pleasure to welcome you to Aldercar High School. Our aim is to provide every young person with an engaging and enriching educational experience that supports both academic achievement and personal development. As a smaller school, we are proud of our inclusive nature, strong sense of community and the high ambitions we hold for every student.

At the heart of our work is a simple but powerful vision: every child is known, every lesson counts and every future is unlocked. This underpins everything we do and ensures that all students are supported to achieve their very best during their time with us.

While we place great importance on academic success and strive to meet and exceed national expectations, we believe that education is about much more than examination results. We are committed to developing the whole child through a broad and balanced curriculum, nurturing qualities such as confidence, resilience and self-belief, and ensuring that every individual’s talents are recognised and celebrated.

We know that the most successful outcomes are achieved when school, home and students work in partnership, united by high expectations. This includes excellent attitudes to learning, pride in appearance, strong attendance and punctuality, and respect for others.

Aldercar High School is a vibrant and supportive community where students thrive through our shared values of Ready, Respectful and Responsible. As part of the Embark Federation, we are also guided by the principle of love learning, love life, which shapes our culture and aspirations for all.

We look forward to welcoming you and working together as part of our school community.
