Cordeaux Academy (formerly Cordeaux School) is a coeducational secondary school and sixth form with academy status, located on North Holme Road in Louth, Lincolnshire, England. Cordeaux educates pupils aged 11 to 18. Its size is a smaller than average, in an area where there are selective grammar schools. It has 550 pupils of whom 70 are in the Sixth form. It employs 39 teachers, and support, technical and administrative staff. The school has 26 feeder schools from the surrounding area, and its partner secondary school is King Edward VI Grammar School, the local Grammar School. Over 50% of Cordeaux's pupils travel to school by bus from outlying areas. ==History== The school is named after Captain Edward Cawdron Cordeaux, D.S.O., O.B.E., R.N., (born 24 July 1894, Caistor), a surgeon who lived at Goulceby House, Goulceby. He reached the rank of Commander in the Royal Navy in 1934, when he left the Navy, then the rank of Captain in 1940 in the Second World War. He became High Sheriff of Lincolnshire in 1963 but died on 8 June 1963. Cordeaux School first opened to the public in September 1956,〔("School prepares for 50th birthday" ), ''Louth Leader'', 20 September 2007. Retrieved 12 December 2011〕 being officially opened on 10 October 1957 as High Holme Road Secondary School. This name remained until 1965 when it became Cordeaux High School, then later, Cordeaux School. The School gained Special Engineering College status in 2004 and is currently in a partnership with Siemens. In September 2011 it was announced that Cordeaux School and the adjacent Wolds College would join with Monks' Dyke Technology College and Tennyson High School in Mablethorpe to form one single organisation under the Local Authority. The option of becoming an Academy was rejected.〔("Friday 23 September 2011 Louth Schools reject Academy proposal" ), Anti Academies Alliance, 23 September 2011. Retrieved 12 December 2011〕 However the school converted to academy status in January 2013, and was renamed Cordeaux Academy. It is now part of the Academies Enterprise Trust. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cordeaux Academy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
