 In 2005 the school reverted to the name Cheadle Hulme High School to avoid confusion with The Cheadle College in Cheadle Hulme and Marple Sixth Form College in Marple, and a new uniform and logo was introduced.In 2012, the school became an academy, as the lead school in the Laurus Trust, and a teaching school as part of the Altius Alliance.This enabled a sixth form to be reintroduced in 2013, and a sixth form building was opened in 2014.
