Craighead Diocesan School
- Craighead Diocesan School is a state-integrated Anglican girls day and boarding school in Highfield, Timaru
- It is the only Anglican-affiliated school in South Canterbury
- The school was founded in 1911 as Craighead School by Dunedin sisters Eleanor, Fanny, Elizabeth, and Anna Shand.
- The school's name comes from the house which was its first building, built in 1875 in the then-countryside outside Timaru. The house was named Craighead in 1890 by new owner Henry Le Cren, after his brother-in-law's Scottish castle
- In 1981, the then-private school was integrated into the state system
