Every year hundreds of students from Manchester and the surrounding areas choose to study at Loreto College. Many students tell us that they choose Loreto because they know that the college has a proven track record of academic excellence, which they want to be part of. Loreto’s examination results have been above national averages for many years.
In an increasingly competitive world students recognise that this can give them an advantage when applying for university places across the country. Other students select Loreto as a place to study because of the colleges excellent reputation and national profile. Awards from the Queen, nominations by national Government and being described by OFSTED as “Outstanding in Every Respect” all go towards making Loreto a college with a uniquely successful reputation.


Loreto’s state of the art facilities and curriculum areas equipped to industry standard ensure that our students leave with the skills and experiences they require to excel in their future careers. Many students also value the wider opportunities Loreto offers: trips abroad, sporting excellence, national level competitions and volunteer programmes. All of these experiences help to ensure that Loreto students receive a well rounded and enjoyable education during their time at college.
Below are some Loreto students and their success stories since leaving Loreto.
