St Anne's Academy is an 11–16 mixed comprehensive academy in Middleton area of the Metropolitan Borough of Rochdale in Greater Manchester, United Kingdom. The school has specialist status in Teaching and Learning.[4] The school has 800 students on roll,[5]
St Anne's Academy opened in September 2007 replacing The Queen Elizabeth School that in turn was previously Hollin High School. The school has a capacity of up to 900 places.[6] The academy is jointly supported by the Church of England Diocese of Manchester, and David and Anne Crossland.[7] In 2007 the Academy received £17.6 million to build additional and refurbish existing buildings. The project was funded by the Church of England, private backers David and Anne Crossland, founders of Airtours Travel and the Government's Building Schools for the future programme. The work was completed summer 2012.
During a 2012 Ofsted inspection the school was described as providing a good education to students providing guidance and support tailored to individual students needs with outstanding effectiveness of care, guidance and support. However pupil attendance was found to be Inadequate.
