Charlton School is a coeducational secondary school located in Telford, Shropshire, England.

In May 2015 the school was placed in special measures after being graded "Inadequate" by Ofsted.[2]

Charlton School works in partnership with Dothill Primary School, forming the 'Dothill and Charlton Sports and Learning Community'. Both schools until July 2015 were under the Principalship of Mr N Renshaw[citation needed] with each school supported by a Head of Secondary and Head of Primary Phase. However, as of September 2015 both schools have their own leadership.
