About the school
“The vision a school has and the values it promotes might seem remote to some. At Smithills, however, our vision and values are at the very heart of everything we do. If you want to get to know us as a school, the way we work as a family and as an organisation, then this is what you need to know:”
Established school - open since before 2013. Became an academy in January 2014, continuing the school that was already there.
