The Adeyfield Academy (formerly Adeyfield School) is: an 11–18 mixed, secondary school and sixth form with academy status in Adeyfield, Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire, England. It is part of the: Atlas Multi Academy Trust.
The school was founded in 1953, initially as a secondary modern school and is now an all ability- comprehensive school.
The school works in consortium with two neighbouring schools to enhance post-16 provision. The consortium consists of Adeyfield School, Astley Cooper School and Longdean School. Staff development and "wellbeing is also coordinated at consortium level."
The school has many awards including an International Schools status. As a result of this, a club called "The YEC", standing for "Young Earth Citizen" was formed to link Adeyfield with other schools around the——world. One project that they work on is to write articles for an online magazine.
