Pool Academy – Term Dates

Although other schools had been in the area previously the original Pool School building was opened in 1896. In 1973 work began on a new site across Church Rd and adjacent to Trevenson Church. The school operated between both sites until 2003 when new buildings were added as part of the PFI Schools building scheme. The now listed Victorian school is currently being converted into housing. The school has been known as Pool Comprehensive School and Pool School and Community College before gaining specialist status when it was renamed Pool Business and Enterprise College. The school was converted to academy status on 1 April 2011 and was renamed Pool Academy.
