Firth Park Academy Phone Number

In 1920 Firth Park Secondary School opened at the Brushes Building at the junction of Barnsley Road & Horninglow Road. It became Firth Park Grammar School in 1937. The uniform of the Grammar School was a redmaroon & green diagonal striped tie. As the uniform also included in the earlier years a red70, following the Labour Government’s national shake up of secondary education the Grammar School, merged with Hatfield House Secondary School, and became the comprehensive Firth Park School. Firth Park School operated from the original buildings of the former schools. In 2003, following a period of closure & several arson incidents, the historic Brushes building was demolished. In 2004, the Longley Park Sixth Form College was opened on the site of Firth Park Grammar School. Firth Park School, now operating on the modernised site of the Hatfield House Secondary School on Fircroft Avenue two miles from the original Grammar School site, gained specialist status as an Arts College and was renamed Firth Park Community Arts College. The school converted to academy status on 1 August 2013 and was renamed Firth Park Academy. The school is now sponsored by Lift Schools.
