The Fallibroome Academy
The Fallibroome Academy is a mixed secondary academy school in Macclesfield, Cheshire, England. It has approximately 1567 students, including around 365 in the sixth form. The school is a specialist performing arts college, leading edge, national training school and a national teaching school, equivalent to a teaching hospital. Fallibroome was opened as a purpose-built comprehensive school on the present site in September 1979. An Ofsted inspection report in 2022 rated the school as "Good".
Although only officially opened at its present location in 1980, during the academic year 1978-9 it operated from the old premises of the Wycliffe Avenue Secondary Modern School for Girls in Wilmslow as a 'stop gap' for a grammar school intake of 72 boys who were unable to be taken by King's School, Macclesfield.
In 2014 a new building was opened, housing a new sixth form centre and new canteen.
The school attracted headlines for its innovative "welcome video", which featured all students and staff in elaborate choreographed sequences.
