Cheadle Hulme School is one of the leading co-educational schools in Britain. In 2005 it will celebrate the 150th anniversary of its foundation. From the original pupil body of six 'orphans and necessitous children', it has grown to a school of over 1400 pupils and 100 teachers. Its high standards and outstanding examination results endorse the school's reputation for excellence, but there is more to the school than simply academic achievement. It possesses a unique culture which reflects the original aims and ideals of its founders.
Cheadle Hulme School was originally known as The Manchester Warehousemen and Clerks' Orphan Schools. It was founded by a group of Manchester businessmen whose main concern was to provide a caring environment and education for 'orphans and necessitous children'. From its inception, the School was to be 'founded and conducted on the most liberal principles and be open for the reception of both sexes'. It was, and still is, non-denominational.
