We are excited to welcome you to Didsbury High School (DHS). DHS opened in September 2019 and is a member of the Laurus Trust family. In September 2023, we opened the doors to Didsbury Sixth Form, a brand new academic Sixth Form on our school site.

We work hard to ensure that every member of our school community has access to a rich and diverse range of opportunities. For our students, this is provided through our four Cornerstones: Academic Aspiration, Leadership and Service, Culture Creativity and Rhetoric, and Competition and Physical Endeavour. We believe that these four Cornerstones underpin an educational experience which will prepare students for life beyond school and deliver our vision.

In 2023, we were rated Outstanding in our first ever Ofsted report. The report stated that students ‘benefit from the school’s aspirational approach to their education’ and highlighted how ‘staff are immensely happy to work here.’

At Didsbury High School, your child will be provided with the guidance and support to open the door to the future of their choice, with the prospect of going on to study at Didsbury Sixth Form.
