Washington Academy (formerly Washington Grammar School and then Washington School) is a co-educational secondary school in Washington in the City of Sunderland, Tyne and Wear, England.
It was originally established as a grammar school but then later became a comprehensive community school administered by Sunderland City Council, with a specialism in technology. The school moved to new buildings in 2009.
In September 2017 Washington School converted to academy status and was renamed Washington Academy. The school is now sponsored by Consilium Academies.
Washington Academy offers GCSEs and vocational courses as programmes of study for pupils. Most students go on to attend Sunderland College which acts as the school's partner further education provider.[citation needed]
