Tytherington School is an academy in Macclesfield, Cheshire, England. Located on Manchester Road, it serves students aged 11 to 18 and has around 1,450 pupils. The school is coeducational and uses a house system with Oak, Ash and Elm. The headteacher is Emmanuel Botwe and the motto is “An ambitious school at the heart of the community.” The campus also includes Tytherington Sixth Form College.

The school’s history goes back to an independent girls’ school founded in the 1860s. It moved to its current site in the early 1950s and became mixed in the 1970s. In 2014–15 it converted to academy status and changed its name from Tytherington High School to Tytherington School.

Building work has shaped the campus over the years. It was rebuilt in 1957 and later expanded with a National Lottery-funded £1 million Sports Hall. A £3.1 million capital program added new blocks, including a 10-classroom Jubilee Block completed in 2012. The Learning Resource Centre and sixth-form block were renovated, and a cafe for sixth-form students opened in 2012. An art block was added in 2006, with further renovations in 2011–12.
