The Heath School
About The Heath School
The Heath School is a mixed 11-16 state secondary in Halton, one of nine secondaries in the local authority. Among its same-type peers, it sits behind Wade Deacon High School, the top-ranked school in the area, and ahead of Ormiston Chadwick Academy and Sandymoor Ormiston Academy. Halton has only one school rated Outstanding across its entire secondary sector, which puts The Heath’s Good Ofsted rating into perspective — it places the school comfortably within the stronger half of the local landscape. Headteacher Mark Tudor leads a large school of 1,185 pupils, and the religious character is listed as not applicable, so there is no faith-based admissions criteria. The school’s position in the local hierarchy, combined with its size and non-selective intake, makes it a mainstream option for families across the borough who want a solid, well-regarded secondary without the competition for places that the top-ranked school might attract.
