About Filey School
About Our School
Filey School is situated on the beautiful North Yorkshire Coast. Our school is a small three-form entry secondary school with approximately 420 students and is the only secondary school in the coastal town of Filey. Filey is located on the North Yorkshire Coast with excellent local amenities and connectivity. The economy is based on tourism and agriculture, however, there are no major industrial sites close by. An expansion of a housing development is directly across from the school promising an increase in pupil numbers.
Filey School converted to an Academy and became the Ebor Filey Academy in 2015. This was on the back of successive Ofsted Reports that criticised the provision for children at the school. The school made progress towards and there was evidence of improvement in 2018 that moved the school to Requires Improvement, however further challenges have arisen in 2021 with the school returning to Inadequate status in December 2021.
Filey School joined Coast and Vale Learning Trust in June 2022, who had been working with Filey School since the start of the year and are committed to returning Filey School to its proud heritage within the town.
