High Storrs School

The primary goal of the project at High Storrs School is to elevate the educational experience and infrastructure available to students, faculty, and the wider school community through the construction of a contemporary Library Learning Centre, complemented by modernized Classrooms and IT Suites. This overarching objective encapsulates several key aims: firstly, to foster an environment conducive to learning by furnishing cutting-edge facilities equipped with advanced technologies and resources, thereby nurturing academic growth and exploration. Secondly, the project endeavors to cultivate a culture of innovation and creativity by providing spaces that inspire collaboration, research, and experimentation, empowering students to excel academically and beyond. Moreover, the initiative seeks to uphold the school's rich heritage by harmoniously integrating modern architectural elements with the Grade II listed main building, ensuring the preservation of its historical significance for future generations. Engaging stakeholders, including students, parents, staff, governors, and local residents, throughout the project's lifecycle, is imperative to align the development with their needs and aspirations, thereby enhancing its relevance and impact. Furthermore, the project underscores a commitment to environmental sustainability by incorporating eco-friendly design principles and technologies to minimize the ecological footprint of the new facilities, instilling a sense of environmental responsibility within the school community. Ultimately, by optimizing resource allocation and management, the project aims to deliver a transformative educational environment that empowers students to thrive academically, socially, and personally, while honoring the legacy and values of High Storrs School.

It moved to its current site in 1933. The school does not have a set uniform, instead allowing students to wear what they like as long as it follows the dress code.
