Tottington High School is a school with a very clear vision for its future, part of the family within The Shaw Education Trust. Tottington High School is an 11-16 years mixed community high school positioned north of Bury, Greater Manchester.

SHAW EDUCATION TRUST was established in 2014 and is sponsored by Shaw Trust and is a growing group of dynamically awesome academies providing education to children of all ages and abilities. Staff across our team of schools are dedicated to ensuring that every child has the opportunity to be successful, whatever their starting point in life.

To achieve this, we pledge an unswerving commitment to improve, accelerate and enable ambitious life goals amongst all our students, and provide our schools with the support they need to deliver the highest possible quality of education. Every action we take as a Trust is guided by our core values, with the best interest of our students and staff members at the heart of everything we do.
