Sheffield Park Academy

Sheffield Park Academy is a high performing 11–18 secondary school in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England, with almost 1,200 pupils, including 150 in a dedicated Sixth Form. The academy is part of United Learning, a national group of schools whose motto is 'the best in everyone'. It opened in 2006 on the site of the predecessor school, Waltheof, moving into a £30 million, purpose-built facility in 2008. Since then, the academy's sustained academic success has seen it placed in the top 5% of schools in the country according to the Progress 8 measure. This is the government's new measure that records pupil progress from the end of the primary school to the end of secondary school.
