Burnage Academy for Boys, formerly known as Burnage High School for Boys, is an 11–16 boys secondary school with academy status, located in Burnage, Manchester, England. The school was founded in September 1932 as Burnage High School on its current site on Burnage Lane. At a ceremony on 21 October 1932, the school was officially opened by Sir Boyd Merriman.

In 1967, Burnage Grammar School became a non-selective comprehensive and later became Burnage High School for Boys following merger with Ladybarn Secondary Modern School, which was on nearby Briarfield Road/Parrs Wood Road, in Withington.[1]
