Our History
Byrchall High School is rich in history and was founded in 1588 by Sir Robert Byrchall. With only 12 children in one classroom, It was founded as Ashton Grammar School on land donated by a wealthy local land owner – William Gerrard. The original school building will be more commonly recognised to our local community as Garswood Library.
Recent History
To celebrate our rich and long standing school history within the Wigan borough, we held an alumni event.
Pupils and staff who attended Byrchall high school throughout the decades were invited back to share their stories, memories and to look back on some of our archived photographs, booklets and school memorabilia.

Our Values
Byrchall High School is committed to fostering an environment built on strong core values that shape both the academic and personal growth of its students. Our motto encapsulates all we try to do every day.
Learn to live- enjoy and achieve.
Live to Learn โ now and in the future.
Respect is encouraged in all interactions, promoting kindness and understanding among students and staff.
Responsibility is emphasised, ensuring that students take ownership of their learning and actions.
Resilience is nurtured through challenges, empowering students to overcome obstacles and learn from setbacks.
Aspiration drives the pursuit of excellence, encouraging students to aim high and reach their full potential. Together, these values create a positive, supportive, and ambitious school culture where every individual is welcome and integral to our community.
OUR FUTURE
Byrchall Students of the Future
Encouraging aspiration in young people is essential for helping them realise their full potential and pursue meaningful goals. With a diverse curriculum, a stimulating and inclusive extra curricular offer for every child Byrchall makes learning exciting.
All students are encouraged to plan for a bright future, fostering a growth mindset where challenges are seen as opportunities to learn and grow rather than obstacles. By providing them with diverse role models, exposing them to various career paths, and celebrating their achievements, we can inspire ambition and a sense of possibility. Mentorship, personalised support, guidance, and creating an environment where their interests are nurtured can further ignite their drive to succeed.
Encouraging self-belief and resilience ensures that our young people remain focused on their aspirations, even in the face of challenges and a changing world, empowering them to set high standards for themselves and strive toward fulfilling futures in whatever area they choose.
