The Stourport High School & VIth Form Centre, formerly known as the Stourport High School and Language College, opened to students in 1956 as an 11-18 school. The starting age was increased to 13 during the 1970s, but reverted to 11 in 2007 as part of the Wyre Forest Review. The school is located in the town of Stourport-on-Severn in Worcestershire, England. It was built to replace the Stourport Secondary Modern School, which was formerly Lickhill Middle.

Present Day

In January 2009, Ofsted graded the school as 1 (Outstanding) on their 4-point scale.[1] In the same year Elizabeth Quinn, the previous Principal, won the 2009 secondary headteacher of the year award for the West Midlands region.[2][3]

The school became an Academy in 2012. [4] The new academy was judged Outstanding later that year.[5]

ContinU

Stourport is part of a Worcestershire organisation called ContinU, a trust that creates more courses for students attending secondary and high schools in the Wyre Forest and Hagley area.[6]
