Darwen Vale High School
Darwen Vale High School (DVHS) is an 11-18 academy, with a newly evolving sixth form which sits as part of collaboration with the two other Aldridge Education schools in the town: DACA and DAES. The school's students are drawn not only from Darwen, but also from neighbouring Blackburn, and around 30% of students qualify for free school meals.
DVHS opened in redesigned and refurbished buildings in September 2012, and has grown from year groups of 150 to 240. It is widely recognised as a school which has seen rapid improvements in recent years: student achievement has improved significantly and as a result, the school has been oversubscribed for the past several years.
In addition, following a recent Ofsted inspection, Darwen Vale has been given a 'Good' rating in all areas; a great achievement, and one which Aldridge and the whole DVHS team are very proud of. The school's motto - We aim high. We work hard. We care. We are Vale. - embodies the commitment of the community of staff, students and parents to ensuring the school continues to go from strength to strength.
