Background
History
The Wellington Academy opened in 2009 on the site of an earlier school. Its new building was designed by London-based architects BDP, built by Kier, and was shortlisted in the best academy category for the Building Schools for the Future Awards in 2009. The President of the academy is the Duke of York, who performed the official opening of the new campus in November 2011. The first Headteacher was Andy Schofield who oversaw its set-up, doubled its size to over 1,000 pupils and established its sixth form.
Description
The school's site is in Tidworth parish, about 3/4 mi south-west of the town of Ludgershall, on the A3026 road towards Tidworth. The campus houses a community sports and fitness centre with bowling green, a hair salon, a cadet centre with indoor shooting range, and Castledown FM's radio studios. The academy has a skills centre in the adjacent Castledown Business Park. The school is near to Tidworth Garrison on Salisbury Plain, and in 2011 almost half of the school's pupils came from service families.
