Anfield Community Comprehensive School
- Anfield Community Comprehensive School
Anfield Community Comprehensive School is a secondary school in the Anfield area of Liverpool, England. The school has over 1100 pupils. The Anfield code is "Committed to achievement in the community".
Located in the inner-city, the school struggled in academic performance indicators, but experienced a dramatic turn around in GCSE passage rates in the 1993 and 1994 results. A 1995 "Times" report profiling the "quiet revolution" cited a cleaner environment, uniforms, and a new code of conduct as causes for the change.
Closure in 2005 is pending due to amalgamation with another local school. Unhappy with the closure, some parents formed the Anfield Parents Action Group to organize opposition.
Anfield Community Comprehensive School has now officially closed and has re-opened as The North Liverpool Academy along with Breckfield Comprehensive School. The North Liverpool Academy's current site is the Anfield building on Priory Road. This will soon change as the school will re-open in its new building near Everton Park.
