We are proud of the fact that so many of our students take part in the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Scheme through the school and that we are one of the largest centres for the Award in the North West. In 2019-20, 166 students started the Award at school and benefited from the opportunities that it brings. This nationally recognised Award provides students with the chance to do things that they would not have thought possible in the past. It develops a ‘can do’ culture among our students which is so valuable in the modern world.

At Poynton High School we are pleased to be able to offer a wide range of school trips/residentials both in the UK and abroad.

This group meets half termly to discuss important issues affecting school.
