EnglandCongleton

Schools in Congleton

A self-contained market town of around 30,000 on the River Dane, Congleton sits in the southern reaches of Cheshire East, roughly midway between Stoke-on-Trent and Greater Manchester.

Mossley is among the most school-competitive pockets for primary catchments, while families seeking schools in Congleton's own town-centre parishes find similarly strong local competition for places. Around eleven schools serve the town. West Heath and Havannah extend the residential character south and east, with Congleton station carrying services to Manchester Piccadilly in around fifty minutes and south to Crewe in under twenty.
