School history

It is believed that the land around the Carr Hill School site was originally the home of a Roman fort dating from 70 AD.

In 1934, the land adjacent to Carr Hill became the Carr Hill Racecourse, built by Edward Sergeant. This was built in the grounds of the Carr Hill Hotel.

The course closed in 1938 when Lancashire County Council acquired land between the road and the racecourse.

The school was then constructed and opened to the first pupils for the autumn term in 1957 and later officially opened by the Duchess of Kent in 1958.

When it was first built, the school could accommodate 450 pupils with 19 classrooms- one science lab, a metalwork and woodwork room. The first headmaster was a Mr R. Simpson. At this time the school had four (4) academic years as pupils would leave after their 14th birthday. A fifth year was added in 1961 for 'A' stream pupils to take their 'O' level GCE exams. The school was split into four (4) 'houses'; Parker, Langton, Birley and Shaw, these names were based on local prominent families. The houses formed the foundation for competition in both academic and sporting areas.

The school now has a wide variety of learning facilities.
