Sandbach School

Founded in 1677, Sandbach School is located on Crewe Road in Sandbach, Cheshire. Sandbach School is unique in the United Kingdom in that it is an independent school but it is still maintained by the Local Education Authority. It is an all-boys school offering admission from the age of 11. The school has its own Sixth Form and so offers A-Levels, amongst many other qualifications.

History

The school has occupied this site near to the centre of Sandbach since 1849. Its original buildings were designed by Sir George Gilbert Scott and have been added to substantially in subsequent years. The school operated as a charitable boarding and day school until 1955, when its unique status was established. It then became the grammar school for boys in South Cheshire. The school began to take pupils of all abilities in 1979.
