St Mark's is a coeducational Church of England secondary school and sixth form located in Bath, Somerset, England. The school attracts pupils from Bath, Larkhall and Fairfield Park.[2]
In September 2009, 150 pupils were enrolled at the school. By 2020, this number rose to 370 pupils.[3]
In 2010, Bath and North East Somerset Council called a meeting to discuss the future of educational provision for the children of Larkhall and the school put forward alternative proposals to its closure.[4] In 2011 the school formed a soft federation with St Gregory's Catholic College in Odd Down, and an executive head teacher, Raymond Friel, was appointed to be in charge of both schools.[5][6] The federation has built a new joint sixth form, The New Sixth at the St Gregory's Catholic College site.[7][8]
Previously a voluntary aided school administered by Bath and North East Somerset Council, in May 2020 St Mark's School converted to academy status. The school is now sponsored by the Midsomer Norton Schools Partnership.
