St Christopher's CE High School

St Christopher's CE High School Welcome to the official page of St Christopher's CE High School. This is a broadcast only page.

St Christopher’s opened in 1958 and is an outstanding 11 - 18 Church of England Academy. Our caring community is based on a close partnership between staff, parents, pupils and governors and we foster strong links with local parishes and clergy, six of whom serve as School Chaplains. We emphasise pupils’ whole development, offering high standards of teaching in a range of courses to cater for all abilities, a wide extra- curriculum and making a priority of spiritual nurture, with religious worship and teaching at the centre of school life. High academic achievement has been a feature of the school over many years, with eight out of ten Year 11 pupils gaining good GCSE grades in English and mathematics. Our most recent Ofsted Inspection Report commented on record levels of attainment and judged pupils’ personal development and behaviour as ‘Outstanding’.

Tomorrow, Saturday 10th October 2026, is . 🧠💚 To mark the occasion and raise awareness, the Mental Health Support Team has been in to speak to our pupils during Year Assemblies, offering advice on mental health and highlighting where pupils can turn if they need further support. 🤝

💬 Our Senior Team have also been running a ‘Wall of Words’, inviting pupils each week to write a note to anybody who might be having ‘a bad day’. These small acts of kindness remind us that we all have mental health, and we all have times when we need to rely on others for help. 💌💚

🏫 If you have concerns about your child’s wellbeing or mental health, please contact their Head of Year in the first instance so that we can ensure they receive the support they need.

💚 Wishing everyone a positive World Mental Health Day from St Christopher’s! Remember, it’s always okay to ask for help, and a little kindness can make a big difference. 🌟

🚸 Year 7 Road Safety Assembly 🚸

This morning, our Year 7 pupils took part in an engaging and thought-provoking Streetwise road safety assembly, delivered by Performance in Education and supported by Lancashire County Council.

The session explored the importance of making safe, sensible choices when travelling to and from school, helping our pupils understand how to stay safe on the roads and look out for themselves and others.

A big thank you to the team for delivering such an important message in an engaging and memorable way! 👏

💼 Great to see our former pupils thriving in their careers! 💼

It’s always a pleasure to catch up with former pupils, and it was fantastic to see Keagan Hayhurst and Nell McCrerie at the Burnley Find Your Future event.

Both Keagan and Nell are now completing apprenticeships with Safran Nacelles, gaining valuable industry experience and developing their skills as they begin their careers.

It’s brilliant to see former St Christopher’s pupils taking different pathways into the world of work and making the most of the opportunities available to them. 👏

We’re incredibly proud of you both — keep up the great work! 🌟
