St Peter’s is one of Manchester’s leading high schools. It is a Roman Catholic High School founded on gospel values where pupils are encouraged to live their faith and to lead purposeful lives. All pupils are very well cared for and staff expect high standards of behaviour and high achievement in academic work as well as in all other aspects of school life.

Ofsted judged St Peter’s to be ‘outstanding’ in its last two inspections and The Diocesan Inspection described St Peter’s as an ‘outstanding Catholic school.’ St Peter’s has been designated as a National Support School giving it the role of helping other schools to improve their teaching and learning.

St Peter’s is a fully resourced and inclusive school. There is an outstanding curriculum that provides a wide range of courses to suit the aptitudes and abilities of all its pupils. They are given every assistance and encouragement to achieve highly and to proceed to one of our partner sixth form colleges, Loreto or Xaverian, and then to move to university or the world of work.

The school has many strengths. Our sporting provision is excellent: we have won one hundred trophies in the last four years including local, regional, national and international titles. Our Performing Arts is also very popular: pupils perform to a very high standard in school and at local theatres. The school regularly raises funds for charity: each Christmas year 11 students donate a substantial cheque to Cornerstone, Manchester’s charity for the homeless, and over the last four years the school has raised £30,000 for Francis House Children's Hospice.
