Previously a community school administered by North Lincolnshire Council, Huntcliff School was converted to academy status on 1 February 2012. However the school continues to coordinate with North Lincolnshire Council for admissions.

Huntcliff School teaches GCSEs, BTECs, OCR Nationals and vocational courses as programmes of study for pupils. Vocational courses are taught in conjunction with North Lindsey College.[4]

Houses

The school utilises a vertical tutoring system, which places students from across all years into tutor groups, with the intention of the older students guiding the younger students through their schooling life.

The school has 4 houses,[5] named after famous ships, however the names are also the names of arguably more famous NASA space programmes. They are:

  •      Atlantis
  •      Apollo
  •      Discovery
  •      Endeavour
