Mornington High School was established in the early 1960s and became a comprehensive in 1976. The school was renamed Hindley High School in 2006. It is a foundation school administered by Wigan Metropolitan Borough Council.

Hindley High School offers GCSEs, BTECs, Cambridge Nationals and ASDAN awards as programmes of study for pupils. The school also offers evening adult education classes to the local community.[2]

Since its renaming in 2006, Hindley High School had been rated "Good" each year by Ofsted inspectors who praised the improvements made by students during their journey throughout the school. Ratings for the school first changed in 2015, when inspectors concluded that plans by leaders for school improvements did not adequately reflect student progress and for the first time since its renaming inspectors deemed the school "required improvement". The school would remain at this stage until 2020, where inspectors deemed the school inadequate; particular attention was drawn to the poor teaching received by pupils at the school.[3]
