Watling Academy is a coeducational secondary school located in the Whitehouse area of Milton Keynes, in the English county of Buckinghamshire.[1]
Construction of the school began in 2019, in anticipation of the planned demand for secondary school places from the large new developments on the western side of the city; the £40 million project to construct the school is on a 10-hectare (25-acre) site.[2] The school formally opened on a temporary site in September 2020,[3] and occupation of the new buildings began in June 2021.[4]
