Composition
At the time of its most recent inspection in June, 2010, the school had approximately 1200 pupils, of which around 250 were in the sixth form.
The school serves Framwellgate Moor and the nearby Newton Hall estate. However, some pupils travel greater distances, typically from outlying former pit villages.
In the latest Ofsted report, FSD was graded as a "good" school with significant "outstanding" features. This was a grade less than the previous Excellent grade. In July 2010 Framwellgate Maths and English department both got outstanding reports.
History
The first school buildings were opened in 1965, with most of the other blocks following over the next decade. The school operated as a comprehensive since 1971.
The school was formerly known as Framwellgate Moor Comprehensive School, and was commonly known by the initials FMCS.
The school was granted Specialist Science College status in 2003.
In 2011 the school was granted independent academy status as part of the UK Conservative government's "Big Society" education plans. This means that the school now has greater control over their education and teaching; however, it remains state run.
In 2013, Mr Alisdair Nicholas was appointed Head Teacher. From September 2017, a new Head Teacher will be appointed following Mr Nicholas' resignation.
Performance
In 2007, 77% of pupils taking GCSEs achieved 5 or more at grade C or above. In the sixth form in the same year, the average level 3 point score was 607 per student.
The school received an 'Outstanding', grade 1 for the Ofsted inspection that took place in October 2005.
In the 2008 Ofsted report the school received a 'Good', grade 2.
