Astley Community High School is a coeducational upper school (styled high school) and sixth form located in Seaton Delaval in the English county of Northumberland.[2]

It is a community school administered by Northumberland County Council,[3] and admits pupils from Seaton Valley, particularly those graduating from Whytrig and Seaton Sluice Middle Schools.[4] In 2022 plans were approved to relocate the school to a new campus within Seaton Delaval. The new campus will be shared with Whytrig Middle School.[5]

Astley Community High School offers GCSEs and BTECs as programmes of study for pupils,[6] while students in the sixth form have the option to study from a range of A-levels and further BTECs.[7] The school also offers the Duke of Edinburgh's Award programme.[8]
