I was at Sandbach School for 37 years and have worked with a lot of staff, some of whom had worked at the school for many years before I came. Some went to the school as pupils. They have pointed out bits of the school’s history to me over the years which I would have otherwise missed.
Read the second section of Sarah Burns’ two-part Q&A with the Old Sandbachians’ Association, conducted by Ryan Grant, a long term friend of the Old Sandbachians’ Association.
To help launch our new website, Headteacher Sarah Burns spoke to Ryan Grant. Sarah has seen some significant changes to Sandbach School during her time as Headteacher. Now into her 12th year in the role, she’s been explaining that despite preparing students for modern-day education, the school has retained the long-standing values upheld by pupils and staff alike for decades.
Our third visit to the RAF club promises to be our best yet. This wonderful opportunity to meet old friends and share memories of our common heritage. As well as Head Teacher Sarah Burns and members of her leadership team, we will this year have a special guest speaker.
Former pupils of Sandbach School, belonging to the Old Sandbachians’ Association recently held their AGM and Annual Dinner at the school. The opportunity was taken to formally open the bespoke extension to the museum cabinet in which a vast array of memorabilia from the past is displayed

We recently received the sad news of the death of Gordon Carter. I remember Gordon from my rugby days. He was a wonderful person and a gifted player, which was apparent still in his later career.

It is with sadness we report the death of Colin Eastwood on 25 June 2019 aged 86. Colin achieved a 1st Class Honours degree at Manchester University and came to Sandbach School as Head of English in 1964 until 1970.
