All Saints' Catholic High School is a coeducational Roman Catholic secondary school located in Rawtenstall, Lancashire, England.
History
The school is located on a large site off Haslingden Road. The main building was completed in 1959, and was called Saint Ambrose secondary modern school with upper school facilities opening in 1972. A new modern foreign language centre – The Fishwick Centre - was built as part of the development of the school as a Specialist Language College. This provides four specialist language teaching rooms, including a computer suite.
In September 2010 a new sports hall was opened.
In November 2025 the pupils moved into a new multi-million pound state of the art school situated on the same site as the original school. The original school is now to be demolished.
Previously a voluntary aided school administered by Lancashire County Council, in July 2017 All Saints' Catholic High School converted to academy status. The school is now sponsored by the Romero Catholic Academy Trust.
