Sir John Gleed School is a mixed secondary school and sixth form located in Spalding, Lincolnshire, England.
The school was formed in November 2011 as a result of a merger of Gleed Boys' School and Gleed Girls' Technology College. The two schools were merged because falling rolls were forecast in this part of Lincolnshire. It is named after Sir John Wilson Gleed, M.A., J.P. (1865-1946) -who was Chairman of the Holland Education Committee and of Holland County Council. He was knighted for political and public service by King George VI on 13 June 1939. The school has now been re-named to "Spalding Academy" as it's sponsership has changed to SLAT.
The school was converted to academy status in January 2013 and it is now part of the CfBT Schools Trust. The school operates a vocational sixth form. It was placed in "special measures" by Ofsted on 10 June 2013, having been judged as being "inadequate" for achievement of pupils, quality of teaching, behaviour and safety of pupils, leadership and management.
