Fareham Academy is a medium-sized mixed secondary school, with five tiers of entry (ages 11–16), located in St Anne's Grove in Fareham, England. Along with The Henry Cort Community College and Cams Hill School, it is one of the three main state schools which serve the town of Fareham.
Fareham Academy is a Converter Academy, which means that it voluntarily converted in 2013 to allow it to manage its own finances and have more independence in the curriculum that it delivers. Its predecessor school, Neville Lovett Community School had already seen huge improvements in GCSE results, but in the last two years, results have been some of the best in Hampshire, ranking 7th. According to the DfE (Department for Education) website In 2016, the Attainment 8 Score for the Academy was 51.7, with a Hampshire average of 51.1 and a National average of 48.5. The Progress 8 score of 0.3 puts the Academy in the top 25% of schools in the country.[1]
In recent years, the number of students on roll has been increasing as both GCSE results and popularity grow. The maximum number of students the Academy can accept is 900. With the growing popularity, the Academy has students from well over 30 primary schools. Competition for places from outside the catchment area means that students from outside catchment not naming the Academy as 1st Choice are unlikely to secure a place.
