Info
Ark Kings Academy (formerly Primrose Hill Secondary School from 1967-1993 and Kings Norton High School from 1993-2012) is a mixed secondary school within the English Academy programme, located in Kings Norton, Birmingham.The school is funded by the Department for Education and operated by Ark schools, a registered charity under English law and sponsored by parent charity Ark.On this site, Primrose Hill Senior School was founded in 1967 and was renamed in 1993 as Kings Norton High School, to avoid confusion with nearby Primrose Hill Primary School. The school reopened as an academy in September 2012, with the staff and pupils from Kings Norton High School. A sixth form is expected to open in September 2017.In 2010, plans were announced to merge the school with Baverstock School to form a new 1,000-pupil school. Although a Statement of Intent was signed by Michael Gove, then Secretary of State for Education, this was later withdrawn.
