Earlier this term, we held a series of very successful Open Evenings for new parents. We were pleased that so many parents visited Cottingham High School to see at first hand the quality of education we offer.

A recent national newspaper article listing the most popular schools in England, confirmed that, in 2008, Cottingham High School received more applications for places than any other secondary school in the East Riding.

Our aim is to ensure success for all students. The fact that so many Year 11 students choose to stay on in our Sixth Form Consortium is the best testimony to the excellent outcomes we achieve with students of all abilities.
