WE CARE
We take great pride in serving
the needs of our students and
are dedicated to each and
every one of them making outstanding progress in their
time at our school.
WE SUPPORT
The learning environment, the quality of the teaching staff and the enthusiasm with which that teaching is delivered will shape the thinking of your son or daughter throughout
their lives.
WE ACHIEVE
While we celebrate individual successes, our collective accomplishments give us great reward as they reflect what can be achieved by working together with a
common goal.
Students rose to the
increased challenge of the
new 9-1 examinations with many students achieving at the top grades of 9-7.
So many students have worked so hard and deserve their successes.

Mr Sheeran, Executive Principal, said “We congratulate all of our Year 11 students – your hard work, preparation and dedication has truly paid off. Seeing so many students securing and surpassing their target grades is just unbelievably rewarding for everyone – staff, students and parents.
“We look forward to an exciting future for all students as they enrol into our shared federation Sixth Form armed with the results they need for their post-16 journey.”
THE HAYDOCK / COWLEY FEDERATION
A Message from the Executive Headteacher
The Local Authority, Governors at Haydock and Cowley have agreed to a formal partnership called a ‘Soft Federation’.
A Soft Federation is when two or more schools agree to work together and are:
- Non-statutory – schools can set up Soft Federations without having to follow regulations such as a Multi Academy Trust
- Each school has its own governing body, with representatives on a joint committee that meets with Cowley Governors
- Members of staff are employed at either school
- Schools keep their separate identities
- All schools share common goals; joint committee recommendations, but it is up to the individual governing bodies to authorise decisions/plans
Keep our school community a safe, friendly and fun place to be. Get in touch via the SHARP system.

Over the last few years we have been successful in achieving Sportsmark, Investors in People, Artsmark, Careers and Guidance and Healthy Schools accreditation. We were also awarded the accolade of a ‘Get Set’ school in the run-up to the 2012 London Olympics.
