Tracing its roots back to 1958 and forming out of a merger of Henbury High School and Ryles Park High School in 2006, on the current Macclesfield Learning Zone Campus, The Macclesfield Academy developed as a Single Academy Trust from 2011 before joining the Foundation in December of 2023.  

The Academy is a welcoming school community, priding itself on every child being known and valued.  

The small school ethos means teachers quickly learn how to work successfully with each child, building positive working relationships. Coupled with this is a driving ambition to maximise the potential of every student.  

The Academy is driven by a ‘relentless pursuit of excellence’.
