For over 100 years, Saddleworth has been proud to serve its community — providing an excellent education and helping young people to achieve their very best. Our tradition is one of both academic success and care for the whole child. Today, our focus remains on ensuring every student not only achieves highly but also enjoys school, develops their talents, and grows into a confident, responsible and caring individual who is excited about the future. At Saddleworth, our mission is clear: Aim High, Expect the Best for Everyone, and Value Our Community . These values shape all aspects of school life, guiding students to work hard, support one another and make the most of every opportunity. In April 2025, we were proud to join the Cranmer Education Trust, a family of schools that includes The Blue Coat School, The Brian Clarke CE Academy, St Anne's Academy, Mayfield Primary, St George's Primary, Manchester Nexus SCITT and the East Manchester Teaching School Hub. We joined the Trust because we share the same values and ambitions for young people: a commitment to academic excellence, broad opportunity, and strong community.
