Pyrland School (formerly The Taunton Academy[1]) is a school with academy status in Taunton, Somerset, England.[2] The school was formed by the merger of The St Augustine of Canterbury Church of England/Roman Catholic VA School and Ladymead Community School.[3] Its original sponsors were Somerset County Council and the Diocese of Bath and Wells, however the school transferred to the Richard Huish Trust in 2015 and is now sponsored by Richard Huish College.[4] It was opened on 9 September 2010 by Peter Price, the Bishop of Bath and Wells. Initially the academy admitted pupils aged 11 to 16 and will be based in the existing schools' buildings. In September 2011, the academy opened a sixth form for 100 students. In 2013, the academy moved to new and refurbished buildings on the former Ladymead site on Cheddon Road, with the former St Augustine site being closed.[5] This plan was temporarily put on hold following the government's major review of the Building Schools for the Future programme in July 2010,[6] and was subject to review by the Department for Education.[7][8]
