"Leaders have an accurate evaluation of the school’s work and well-thought-out plans for further improvements." Ofsted 2024

At Rooks Heath School, we are committed to academic excellence, strong discipline, and high aspirations. Since becoming an Academy in 2011, we have built a reputation as a dynamic and forward-thinking 11–18 comprehensive secondary school, dedicated to shaping the leaders of tomorrow. 

We are proud to be part of a Multi-Academy Trust, which includes Earlsmead Primary School and, more recently, The Jubilee Academy. This collaboration allows us to provide a seamless, high-quality educational journey for our students.
