Endeavour High School, is a secondary school in Kingston upon Hull, England. It is a community school, which takes children from the age of 11 through to the age of 16. The school has approximately 1,050 pupils, but has the capacity to take 1,200.

In March 2004 Endeavour was placed on special measures, following an inspection by Ofsted. The school came out of special measures in December 2005, after making satisfactory progress due to improvements that the school had implemented.[2]
