Modern and well-equipped facilities are the foundation of Sheffield High School’s tradition of sporting excellence. All-weather pitches cater for outdoor sports like hockey and tennis, while the School’s extensive sports complex provides state-of-the-art indoor accommodation for basketball, trampolining and dance.

Music

Music flourishes throughout the school in our new suite of the most up-to-date equipment. We value the music that is taught in the curriculum and, in addition, there are numerous musical activities which enrich our lives: three choirs, concert bands, swing bands, two orchestras, a string training group and flute group. We have 14 visiting instrumental teachers and lessons can be arranged and examinations taken in school.

“A well deserved reputation for the quality and quantity of its music”
