Brierley Art Block

This wonderful new building has already enhanced the art experience of the pupils and is a superb addition to the range of facilities at Hulme. Four spacious teaching studios on two floors with facilities for printmaking, ceramics, film and animation as well as painting and drawing, form the main part of the building. In addition there is a sixth form studio which offers an excellent gallery exhibition space. The building has a light and airy contemporary feel to it and both floors have full disabled access and facilities.

Sports Hall

The Sports Hall comfortably houses four badminton courts. It also has a basketball court with two mini courts going across. There is a full sized netball court and volleyball court, along with facilities for table tennis.

There is also a multigym and facilities to do indoor athletics. The Sports Hall is used by all schools as well as external agencies such as Oldham Athletic, Oldham Netball and Werneth Cricket Club.

Swimming Pool

The Swimming pool at Hulme is conveniently located behind the Hulme Courtbuilding next to the Sports Hall.  It is a fantastic on site facility that is used by all age sections of the schools; from Kindergarten right up to Seniors.

Whilst the pool is just short of 20 metres and has 4 lanes, it is ideal for use in lessons and for club use. Although we do not have a viewing gallery,there is enough room on poolside for a few spectators for our more junior galas.

Centenary Library

The Centenary Library opened in 1997 and has been designed and built to reflect the changing needs of pupils who require information in a wide range and variety of formats. It complements the advances made throughout the school to equip pupils for the challenges of higher education and employment and to prepare them to become adult citizens in the new millennium.

Reading is a life skill and we aim to encourage pupils to use the library from their first days at Hulme. An area of the library has been designed to accommodate lower school pupils and this contains novels and non-fiction books for reading, pleasure, information as well as education.

A computer suite in the library provides access to word processing facilities, information on CD-ROM and access to the internet.

ICT Suite

Within the senior schools there are four computer suites with 20 PC’s in each.  Each of these is networked to the central server and used by all pupils throughout the schools both during lessons as well as in their free time.

All the PC’s have the latest Microsoft software and are protected by an external hardware controlled firewall.

Denton House Technology Block

Denton House provides learning facilities for lower school, GCSE and A-level Design Technology.
