St Mark's is a Church of England secondary school located in Larkhall in Bath, England.[1] It is a specialist Business and Enterprise College.[2] In September 2009, 282 pupils were enrolled at the school.[3] As of January 2010[update], this number had dropped to 270.[4]
In 2010, Bath and North East Somerset Council called a meeting to discuss the future of educational provision for the children of Larkhall and the school put forward alternative proposals to its closure.[5] In 2011 the school formed a soft federation with St Gregory's Catholic College in Odd Down, and an executive head teacher, Raymond Friel, was appointed to be in charge of both schools.[6][7] The federation will build a joint sixth form at the St Gregory's Catholic College site.[8]
