Upton Hall School FCJ, is a single sex girls' Roman Catholic voluntary aided grammar school located in Merseyside, England. It is one of four Catholic schools in the Metropolitan Borough of Wirral, and was founded as a girls' convent school by the Nuns in 1849, at the invitation of the Bishop of Shrewsbury. The school is located within the Catholic Diocese of Shrewsbury. The current headmistress is Mrs Young. Upton Hall School FCJ was awarded 'Outstanding' by Ofsted in 2006.
The school was in recent years granted Technology College status, in cooperation with St Anselm's College, Birkenhead, and although the joint Technology College status has now expired, both schools have made individual applications for renewal of the specialist status.
