History

Archbishop Temple Church of England High School welcomed its first pupils in September 1963, as a secondary modern school serving the needs of inner city Preston. It was originally named "William Temple School", after Archbishop William Temple, Archbishop of Canterbury 1940-1944.[citation needed]

Academic performance and inspections

In 2013 97% of pupils left the school with A*-C grades in Maths at GCSE.[citation needed] In 2019 83% of pupils left the school with five or more good GCSE qualifications including English and Maths.[citation needed] Archbishop Temple Church of England High School is the highest performing (non selective) school in Lancashire.[citation needed]

Ofsted rated the school as Outstanding in 2009; however since then the school through its lack of effective leadership and governance has moved from being the most highly rated school in Preston to a school Requiring Improvement. The most recent inspection in September 2022 indicates that the school now Requires Improvement and will need to be re-visited in the next 30 months to ensure the school improves.[1]

Ofsted visited the Maths department in 2010 and rated it as Outstanding.[citation needed]

In 2015 the school became a Teaching School, working within the Preston Teaching School Alliance.[citation needed] In 2009 the school became a National Support School, and again in 2017 the school was redesignated as a National Support School, and the Headteacher became a National Leader of Education.
