Care • Quality • Opportunity
Welcome to Castle Rushen High School.
We are a friendly and caring secondary school situated in picturesque Castletown, in the south of the Isle of Man.
Our approach to education is summed up by three core principles: Opportunity, Care and Quality, which we apply to all that we do. With these foundations, we aim to build an environment where our 900 students, teachers and support staff can thrive.
The Castle Rushen High School curriculum offers all students a broad education for broader horizons. The students' holistic curriculum journey is focused on fulfilment through academic progression, character enrichment and skill acquisition. This vision for the curriculum is underpinned by our inclusive ethos and the concept of 'head', 'heart' and 'hands'.
We want our students to leave Castle Rushen High School as knowledgeable, compassionate and skilled young people ready to have a positive impact on society.
