Bishop Heber High School is a comprehensive secondary school in Malpas, Cheshire, England. The school is named after bishop Reginald Heber (1783–1826), who was born in Malpas and is remembered as a hymn-writer. In 2011, the school was rated outstanding in that year's Ofsted inspection.[1]

In January 2022, the school was criticised for allowing only school-branded coats to be worn on site. Parents claimed that children were in jumpers and 'freezing' while staff were in warm coats.[2]
