Hilbre High School is a co-educational secondary school and sixth form with academy status located in West Kirby, on the Wirral Peninsula, England.
The school had been remodelled, with a City Learning Centre being added on the site. However, following its closure last year this has now been converted to a Music and Arts centre. Reconstruction took place in phases over a period of a few years.[1]
The school has a drama studio theatre funded by the school's Humanities College status. This facility includes a lighting and sound booth which can be used as a recording studio. The school also has a 6th form block.
The names of the school houses are Dee (named after the River Dee), Hoyle and Royden (named after Royden Park, located in Frankby, Wirral).
