St Monica's R.C. High School Specialist Language & Applied Learning College, is located on Bury Old Road in Prestwich, Greater Manchester, opposite to Heaton Park. The school is a Roman Catholic Secondary School provided by the Diocese of Salford and is maintained by the Bury Local Education Authority as a Voluntary Aided School. It serves pupils mainly from the areas of Prestwich, Whitefield, Kersal and Radcliffe and all those in the parish communities of its associated primary schools. ==History== St Monica's RC High School was formed when two schools; St Joseph's RC High School, Whitefield and St Peter's RC High School, Prestwich, amalgamated and settled on the former St Peter's site on Bury Old Road. The school opened on 1 September 1987.〔http://www.tes.co.uk/Upload/Attachments/TES/3060328/947931%20JD.doc〕 During Pope John Paul II's visit to the United Kingdom in 1982 the school (St Peter's RC High School at the time) was used as the base for local authorities and members of the Pope's entourage.〔http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/domesday/dblock/GB-380000-402000/page/8〕 The Pope made his appearance in nearby Heaton Park making the school an ideal place to run the operations from. 〔http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/local-news/the-day-the-pope-came-to-town-1067219〕 The school achieved Beacon status in 2001,〔http://www.burytimes.co.uk/archive/2001/06/29/6022249.Schools__Beacon_status_joy/〕 gained its specialist status as a language college in 2003,〔http://pad-planning.bury.gov.uk/DocExplorer/307/00/04/35/00043511.pdf〕 and became an applied learning college in 2010.〔http://www.burytimes.co.uk/news/8199460.print/〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「St Monica's High School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
