Welcome to Claremont High School. . .
Any organisation’s website can only give you a snap shot of what actually goes on inside that organisation. Where schools are concerned it is even more difficult to show the excellent teaching and learning that takes place on a day-to-day basis. What we have tried to do in this Claremont website is to give you the information that we feel you will need to introduce you to the school in the hope that you will wish to find out more about our work by visiting us or by making more personal contact with us.

Since becoming a Specialist College for Performing Arts in 2001 here at Claremont we have been able to build on our success as a community comprehensive school: employing additional specialist staff; investing in high quality information, communication and technology equipment, available to all subject areas; expanding the curriculum offer at KS3, KS4 and post 16; creating and sustaining greater opportunities for staff, pupils and community groups to engage in a vast range of enrichment and learning activities; commissioning an architect designed multi-purpose arts hall costing nearly half a million pounds (2002) and architect designed Sports Complex and refurbishing specialist teaching areas.

Being a school with multi specialisms means being able to offer breadth, variety and choice not only in the specialist subjects but also in the core curriculum as well: Maths, Science, English and Humanities teaching has remained and will remain a high priority for the school.

I know that I speak for the Governors, Staff, and pupils when I say that we are proud of the achievements of our school and that we welcome the opportunity to work with and learn from all of those who share our commitment to success.

To prepare our students to realise their full potential

"I have seen the enormous benefits of leading an achievement focused school with an expectation of the highest standards of behaviour and excellence in the academic and social achievement of all of our learners.

Our school's mission statement is the driving force behind all that we do here at Claremont High School. It enables us to engender in our learners a genuine appreciation of traditional standards of courtesy, respect for one another and our different beliefs, and the ambition to do well by working hard."


Headteacher: Mr F T Molloy

Building Project

December 2009 saw the demolition of the old 'lower school area'. This is to make way for a state of the art dining room and eight new classrooms. The building works are currently on schedule and recent works have included pouring the concrete and the steel frame arriving. This is a very exciting project for Claremont High School, that will greatly enhance the school experience for our learners. The new dining hall should be ready for September 2010 and below is a video showing a virtual tour of this building.
