The school stands in a residential area of the Wirral close to the Dee Estuary. Pupils come primarily from the Wirral, Deeside and Cheshire areas. The main site at the top of Caldy Hill is occupied by the school buildings, sports cages and field, with a larger field located over Grammar School Lane. A mile southeast of the main school buildings, along Column Road, Calday has playing fields including 3 rugby pitches, a cricket square, and a sand-based artificial hockey field. The school is surrounded by suburban housing development and the woods of Thurstaston and Caldy.
