Ladymead Community School was a secondary school and technology college located on Cheddon Road, Taunton, Somerset, England. It had 753[1] students aged 11–16.

The school made the news when a protest[2] of hundreds of students turned into a riot, prompting police to enter the school.

The school closed in July 2010 following successive years of poor standards, on site crime and Ofsted investigations. Students were subsequently transferred to The Taunton Academy.[3]
