Evelyn Grace Academy

Evelyn Grace Academy is a non-selective, co-educational secondary school within the English Academy programme, in Brixton, London.

The Academy opened in September 2008 in temporary accommodation admitting its first 180 Year 7 pupils. In September 2010 the academy moved to a new purpose built school building as it admitted its third year 7 year group. The building, designed by architect Zaha Hadid,[1] was awarded the 2011 Stirling Prize.[2] The school is funded by the Department for Education and owned and operated by Ark schools, a registered charity under English law,[3] and sponsored by parent charity Ark,[4] founded by hedge fund financiers Arpad Busson, Paul Marshall and Ian Wace.
