Carleton High School (CHS) is a coeducational secondary school with academy status, based in Pontefract, West Yorkshire, England. It is a part of the Pontefract Academies Trust[1](PAT) which is a multi-academy organisation with two high schools, CHS and The Kings' School, and six primary schools.[2][3]
Community
The school has close links with the community, frequently becoming involved in both local and national charity work. As a centre for learning, the facilities are open to adults through adult evening classes, and to their partner primary schools. CCHS have a programme of performing arts and sports events.
During summer 2018, the school had a complete rework. The project lead was lead by John Osborne, director of Wakefield District Housing Schools Solutions. [4]
The controversial decision was made to make the uniform only accessible from an online retailer. This sparked a Change.org petition which gathered over 900 signatures to revert the change.[5]
