Little Heath School
Because of its location outside the Reading borough boundary, but in Reading, the school is managed by the West Berkshire Local Education Authority though it serves a catchment area that covers both sides of the borough boundary.
The school's pupil capacity is approximately 1,700 students with approximately 270 people a year in years 7-11. In February 2018, the school received a 'Good' rating from an Ofsted formal Inspection.
The current sixth form center, which was purpose-built in 2015, was opened by Reading West MP Alok Sharma. Part of the campus was rebuilt from 2019-2021, including drama and technology spaces, a gym, and a new canteen. The campus was open for use in April 2021.
Little Heath has a house system, installed in 2014. The four houses are named after castles in the United Kingdom: Stirling (Red), Arundel (Green), Conway (Blue), and Warwick (Yellow).
Little Heath also has annual sports days where each house competes against the other.
