History


Establishment

A school existed in
Sandbach Sandbach (pronounced ) is a market town and civil parish in the Cheshire East borough of Cheshire, England. The civil parish contains four settlements: Sandbach, Elworth, Ettiley Heath and Wheelock, Cheshire, Wheelock. At the 2021 United Kingd ...
as early as 1578, when the York visitation returns referred to a
schoolmaster A schoolmaster, or simply master, is a male school teacher. The usage first occurred in England in the Late Middle Ages and early modern period. At that time, most schools were one-room or two-room schools and had only one or two such teacher ...
in the town. In 1606, the parish register also mentioned a schoolmaster in the town. It was not until 1677, however, when the grammar school was properly founded by Richard Lea, after he gave a piece of land for the schoolhouse. Francis Welles and others paid for the construction of the schoolhouse. In 1718, a deed was drawn up that demonstrated how the school should be managed and gave instructions for the appointment of governors and a master. 20 poor boys of Sandbach were to be educated at the new school, and the second master was likely to have also been the parish curate. By 1816, the school had 60 pupils and was located at Egerton Lodge, Middlewich Road. In 1848, a private act of Parliament, the ( 11 & 12 Vict. c. ''11'' ), was passed that set out how the school should be better managed. An annual salary of £140 was set for the schoolmaster, and of £60 to the second master. From 1849, the school's buildings were replaced by buildings designed in the early English style by
George Gilbert Scott Sir George Gilbert Scott (13 July 1811 – 27 March 1878), largely known as Sir Gilbert Scott, was a prolific English Gothic Revival architect, chiefly associated with the design, building and renovation of churches and cathedrals, although he ...
. It entered these new buildings in 1851. By 1890, the school had a laboratory, gymnasium and swimming bath. In 1909, the school acquired eligibility for the Board of Education grants, but in 1945 the government decided that the school should no longer have direct access to these grants. The governors chose independence rather than becoming a local education authority (LEA) school.


Boys day grammar school

The school operated as an independent school until 1955, when it entered into a unique agreement with
Cheshire County Council Cheshire County Council was the county council of Cheshire. Founded on 1 April 1889, it was officially dissolved on 31 March 2009, when it and its districts were superseded by two unitary authorities: Cheshire West and Chester and Cheshire East. ...
that it would maintain its independence and charitable status but operate as the boys' day grammar school in south-east Cheshire. In 1957, to help to alleviate the shortage of grammar school places in south-east Cheshire, the governors agreed with the local education authority to provide 60 places for boys based on residence, not ability. In 1976, these were increased in 180. In the same year, Sandbach School was first listed as a Grade II Listed building. 1979 saw the school enter into a new agreement with the LEA that it would have an all-ability intake of boys from a defined area of south-east Cheshire. In September 2011, Sandbach School became one of the first 24 free schools to open in the country.


School structure


Enrolment

At the last Ofsted inspection, in 2008, the school had 1167 students. In 2011, it was reported the school had 1220 students and was likely to rise to its capacity of 1265 by 2012/13 as a result of "organic growth due to rising demographics". The main primary school feeders to Sandbach School are Sandbach Primary, Wheelock Primary, Haslington Primary, The Dingle Primary, St John's Primary, Elworth Hall Primary, Elworth C of E Primary and Offley Road Primary. There are six other secondary schools and sixth forms in a five-mile radius: Sandbach High School and Sixth Form College, Holmes Chapel Comprehensive School,

, Sir William Stanier School, Middlewich High School and Congleton High School. In Year 10 and Year 11, a range of GCSEs and vocational subjects are offered, and in Sixth Form, the school offers AS-Levels, A-Levels and BTECs. Sandbach School's published admission number (PAN) is 240 pupils per year, a figure which is given to all schools in England in order to determine whether any age group within a school is full or not. Sandbach School commits to admitting up to 24 boys into Year 7 at the school who display aptitude in either Music or Sport. Evidence of this aptitude will be required to be provided via an assessment event, to which all boys who have applied for a place under Priority 2 (Aptitude) will be invited. Boys with brothers, step-brothers or half-brothers living together as part of one household who are already attending Sandbach School and are expected to continue at the school the following school year, or boys with sisters, stepsisters or half-sisters already attending Sandbach High School & Sixth Form College and who expected to continue at Sandbach High School & Sixth Form College the following school year are given the fourth priority for allocation of places at Sandbach School in line with the schools admission policy. Boys whose applications are unsuccessful for a place at Sandbach School will have their name placed on a waiting list for no more than one term after the start of the academic year, regardless of whether their parents decide to appeal the decision of not offering a place at the school to their school. After the one term waiting list agreement, boys named are removed from the waiting list, and parents who wish to remain on the waiting list must reconfirm their interest in writing to the Headteacher.


House System

There are currently four Houses at Sandbach School, which students are grouped into. A student's House can be determined by the colour of the crest on their tie. All houses at Sandbach School compete to win points each year, which determines who will win the House Cup. For a short period of time in the early 1980s, the school had six Houses. These were: Hall (Ward was renamed Hall during this period), Welles, Lea, Craig, Scott and Kent. The House system at Sandbach School suffered somewhat of a crisis during the 1930s, when the school decided to stop admitting boarders to the school, meaning the already diminishing school house became defunct. To compensate for the loss of the school house, the school was divided into four houses of "equal strength". Craig House is named after Ernest Craig began who had a long association with Sandbach School, first as a pupil and latterly as a very involved Old Boy who would become the president of the Old Sandbachians’ Association. Whilst serving as the Member of Parliament (MP) for Crewe, Craig maintained a strong connection with the school, acting as a Governor and had become involved in the administration of house events and associated awards. Lea house is named after Richard Lea, a local business man who donated a plot of land to educators on Middlewich Road to develop his vision for young boys from poorer backgrounds to have access to education. In 1718, Dr. Charles Ward of Bradwall left a sum of £200 in his Will upon his death, which was stipulated to be used to pay for the board and education of three boys in particular “until they were fit for one of the universities.” These boys became known locally as ‘Ward’s Scholars’ and all went on to study at universities once they had left Sandbach School. To commemorate Ward's gesture and donation to the school, Ward House is named in his honour. Francis Welles, one of the men appointed by Richard Lea to set up the school invested money into the establishment of some of the school’s limited facilities at the time. At this time, children’s education often had to be paid for by donations of local people, Welles left a sum of money in his Will to be split between the school itself, as well as to be given to the local poor. In recognition of his contributions to Sandbach School, a scholarship was established in his name for students who engaged in sports, as well as being honoured by having the school's Welles House named after him.
