Attleborough Academy Norfolk (AAN) (formerly Attleborough High School) is a coeducational secondary school and sixth form with academy status, located in Attleborough in the English county of Norfolk.

Previously a community school administered by Norfolk County Council, Attleborough High School became a specialist Mathematics and Computing College in 2008. As part of this, the school became a Microsoft®Academy in 2010.[1] In May 2013 the school launched a consultation on the possibility of converting to academy status.[2] Attleborough High School formally became an academy on 1 January 2014, and was renamed Attleborough Academy Norfolk. The school is now sponsored by the TEN Group. [3]

Attleborough Academy offers GCSEs, NVQs and BTEC First Certificates as programmes of study for pupils. The sixth form centre offers A Levels and advanced BTECs, some of which are offered in partnership with Wymondham College.[4]
