St Dunstan's School is a secondary school in Glastonbury, Somerset, England. The school has 586 students between the ages of 11 and 16 years.[1] It is named after St. Dunstan, an abbot of Glastonbury Abbey, who went on to become the Archbishop of Canterbury in 960AD.
The school was a 'new-build' in 1958 with major building work, at a cost of £1.2 million, in 1998, adding the science block and the sports hall. It was designated as a specialist Arts College in 2004 and the £800,000 spent at this time paid for the Performing Arts studio and facilities to support students with special educational needs.[2] In 2011, the school became an academy.
