Newmarket Academy (formerly Newmarket College) is a coeducational secondary school with academy status located in Newmarket in the English county of Suffolk.[1]

Previously a community school administered by Suffolk County Council, Newmarket College converted to academy status on 1 July 2014 and was renamed Newmarket Academy and became part of the Samuel Ward Academy Trust. However, the school continues to coordinate with Suffolk County Council for admissions. [citation needed]

Newmarket Academy offers GCSE courses, and has cross-curricular study and extra-curricular activities. In the academic year 2014–2015 GCSE results at the newly created Academy rose 15% to 52% A* - C including English and Maths. The school is also partnered with Godolphin to offer experience to the students. [citation needed]
