The Manor School is a co-educational secondary school with academy status in Mansfield Woodhouse, Nottinghamshire. It has a sports college specialism.
The school was previously made up of the former Forest View County Secondary Modern school on Park Hall Road, and a site on Yorke Street; however, following the destruction of large parts of the Park Hall Road site by fire in 1996, work was carried out to incorporate the school to a single site. This was achieved for the start of the 1999/2000 school year, and the Yorke Street site was demolished and sold for housing construction.
The school has achieved several awards including Artsmark, Sportsmark Gold and home access award. It provides a range of extended services. The on-site facilities for the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) provide both crèche and physical activity sessions in a separate building at Manor Sport and Recreation Centre.
In its 2009 Ofsted inspection the school was graded as good.
The inspection report states:
‘Since the last inspection, the Manor School has continued to improve both its provision and the outcomes for its students. This is the result of strong and determined leadership in the school, especially that of the head teacher, combined with the dedication of the school's staff.
The extensive site has been imaginatively developed and provides excellent sporting facilities, good provision for information and communication technology (ICT) and specialised teaching areas for dance and drama. In addition, a farm unit supports the students' science and environmental land management courses.’
