Fulwood Academy (formerly Fulwood High School) is a coeducational secondary school and sixth form located in Fulwood (near Preston) in the English county of Lancashire.[1]

Previously a community school administered by Lancashire County Council, Fulwood High School converted to academy status on 1 September 2009 and was renamed Fulwood Academy. The school is now sponsored by Charles Dunstone through a charitable trust. Dunstone is the chairman and co-founder of mobile phone retailer Carphone Warehouse and chairman of the TalkTalk Group.[2]

Fulwood Academy offers GCSEs and BTECs as programmes of study for pupils, while students in the sixth form have the option to study from a range of A-levels, OCR Nationals and further BTECs.
