Seaham School of Technology
at Burnhall Drive, Sunderland , SR7 0EN United Kingdom
The Seaham School of Technology is a secondary school located in Seaham, County Durham, England, for pupils aged 11–16. It is the only secondary school in the area, acting as a hub for most year 6 children leaving the local primary schools.New schoolIn 2007, it was reported in the local newspaper, the Seaham Star, that the school is to be rebuilt on a field at the back of the Milton Close area of Deneside. Pupils and parents were invited into the school to voice their opinion on plans for the new school. Its cost is currently estimated at £16,000,000 and it is scheduled for construction in 2013. The old school uniform consisted of black trousers, a white polo shirt, and a royal blue jumper with school name on it. Year 11 pupils can choose the colour of their sweatshirt, usually with the school name and logo embroidered on it. In September 2010 after consultation with the students, the school returned to wearing blazers. Most recently, planning permission for a new school building was granted for the area which was formerly occupied by Seaham Colliery (locally known as "The Knack pit"). In 2010, the Building Schools for the Future plan was scrapped by the new Conservative coalition government. As a result of this Seaham School will not be getting the new buildings that had previously been approved.Further EducationThe school currently does not have its own sixth form but it does sponsor Byron College which is available to students leaving the school who seek further education. Partly due to open days and visits to the school from further education establishments, the vast majority of students leaving the school go to either City of Sunderland College or Durham Sixth Form College.
