Admissions

Sacred Heart Secondary is a truly comprehensive secondary academy, providing education for 11-16 year olds from communities across the borough of Redcar and Cleveland. Sacred Heart is a Catholic academy that welcomes students from other faith backgrounds. Applications for admission into Y7 in the September intake are made through the Local Authority admission to secondary school process. Parents should complete their application online by 31 October.

Parents seeking a place for their child at Sacred Heart Secondary should note that the over-subscription criteria set out in the Admissions Policy is applied using the Catholic Application Form. It is therefore important that all applicants send a completed Catholic Application Form which can be found below, and any required evidence, directly to the Academy so that this can be taken into consideration.

Parents moving into the area, or wishing to transfer their children to Sacred Heart from another secondary school, can contact the school to arrange a visit. An in-year supplementary information form must be completed for each individual child wishing to transfer to Sacred Heart part-way through the academic year. Please click on this link below to complete the form

🎬 TikTok Famous! 😄

As another fantastic school year comes to an end, our staff decided to have a little fun and create our very own TikTok-inspired video. After all, while our students certainly know how to have fun, so do we!

Thank you to all of our students, families and staff for making this year so memorable. We hope our video brings a smile to your face!

From everyone at Sacred Heart, we wish you a wonderful, relaxing and safe summer. We look forward to welcoming you back in September! ☀️💙

🏆 Celebrating Success at Sacred Heart! 💙

What a wonderful way to end the school year! This morning we came together for our annual End of Year Rewards Assembly, celebrating the incredible achievements, dedication and virtues shown by our students throughout the year.

From 100% attendance, House Point champions, Virtue Award winners, Above & Beyond recognitions, Sports Awards, World Cup Door competition winners, and so much more, it was fantastic to recognise the many ways our students have made this year so special.

A huge congratulations also goes to our Sports Day champions, whose teamwork, determination and resilience shone through in an unforgettable day of competition.

We were also treated to wonderful performances from our choir and dancers, helping to make the celebration even more memorable.

To every student—whether you received an award today or simply gave your very best throughout the year—you should be incredibly proud. Thank you for your hard work, kindness, commitment and for living out our school values each and every day.

Have a fantastic summer, everyone. You have certainly earned it! ☀️💙

👩‍🍳 Cooking Club Finale! 🍪🍓

A couple of weeks ago, our Year 7 Cooking Club signed off for the year in the sweetest way possible – with delicious Cookie Dough Pizzas! 😋

Our talented chefs made their own cookie dough bases before getting creative with the toppings, melting chocolate, chopping fresh strawberries and adding mini marshmallows to create some truly amazing treats.

The finished pizzas looked so good that the biggest challenge was getting them home… unfortunately, nobody brought a container big enough, so we had to get creative with our packaging! 😂

A huge well done to our fantastic Year 7 Cooking Club for all of their enthusiasm, creativity and culinary skills throughout the year. We can’t wait to see what you’ll be cooking next! 👏🍕🍫🍓
