Inspiring Young People

The School

Upton Hall School FCJ is a Roman Catholic Grammar School for girls aged 11-18. It is situated in the Diocese of Shrewsbury under the Trusteeship of the Society of the Faithful Companions of Jesus, FCJ. The school has academy status.

We have more than 1000 pupils, including 220 members of our flourishing Sixth Form. (We welcome applications from all highly motivated students for places in our Sixth Form.)

Academic excellence is highly valued, with each pupil encouraged to develop her own talents to the best of her ability for her own sake and so that she can help to make the world a better place. As an FCJ school, we have a distinctive ethos that shapes all that we do.

Upton was judged by Ofsted to be outstanding school in the full inspection that took place in June 2022.  An inspection of the Catholic Life of the school including the teaching of RE was undertaken by Shrewsbury Diocese in May 2025 which judged Upton to be an outstanding catholic school.

Upton Hall continues to develop year-on-year.  Our campus-style site is spacious and allows pupils and Sixth Form students the freedom to explore and enjoy nature while they are learning.  In addition to the high quality pastoral care, noted in our Catholic inspection, year-on-year Upton Hall pupils and Sixth Form students achieve outstanding examination results which put us among the top schools in the country.
