Sandbach School is an 11–18 boys free school in Sandbach, Cheshire, north-west England. It was established in 1677 by local philanthropists, including Richard Lea, who donated the land for the school, and Francis Welles, who helped to fund the schoolhouse. It was located at Egerton Lodge, Middlewich Road, before moving into a new set of buildings designed by George Gilbert Scott in 1851.
Boys are organised into four school houses – Craig, Lea, Ward and Welles, across Years 7–11. In June 2023, 1,509 boys attended the school,[3] with the lower school an entirely boys provision, whilst the sixth form is co–educational. Two-thirds of boys attending the school are from the Sandbach and Haslington area, with the remaining third coming from the Crewe area.[4] The school is the largest provider of adult education in the area.[5]
It became a private school in 1945, and a state-funded independent grammar school in 1955. It became a state-funded independent school accepting boys of all abilities in 1979, and became one of the country's first free schools in 2011. The current headteacher is Sarah Burns, who assumed the role in 2008.
