The Ripley Academy is a secondary school and sixth form located in Ripley, Derbyshire, England.[1]
The school was formed from a combination of Benjamin Outrams Comprehensive School and Ripley Technical School and was known as Mill Hill School. In 2009 the school gained specialist status in English. Prior to this, Mill Hill specialised in the Media and liberal arts curriculum.[2]
Mill Hill School converted to academy status in September 2014 and was renamed The Ripley Academy. The school is now part of the East Midlands Education Trust along with the West Bridgford School in Nottinghamshire.[3]
