Wright Robinson College is a coeducational secondary school in Abbey Hey, Gorton, Manchester, England.[2]
The college caters to pupils of all socio-economic and religious backgrounds and was previously a specialist college of Sport and the Arts. The school is on the edge of east Manchester, in the grounds of Debdale Park. Wright Robinson holds the Sportsmark Gold award with distinction, Artsmark Gold award also with distinction, the coveted FA Charter Mark, and the Healthy School award. Wright Robinson College is the single largest and most over-subscribed school in the city of Manchester, with around 1,800 pupils on roll. The school converted to academy status in November 2019 and is now sponsored by the Flagship Learning Trust.
The college is named after Wright Robinson, a long-serving Manchester city councillor.[3]
The Headmaster of the college is Martin E. Haworth, with Neville L. Beischer as the CEO and the Chair of Governors is Christine Shaw. The college, in terms of Value Added scores, is the highest achieving Comprehensive secondary school in England and Wales. This means that from a relatively low achieving background, children leave Wright Robinson with above average results. Results from Wright Robinson are higher than those of any school of its kind in the country, beaten in Manchester only by the King David School.
The annual presentational ceremony for GCSE results is held at the Bridgewater Hall, home of the Hallé Orchestra.
