De Lacy Academy (formerly Knottingley High School) is a mixed secondary school and sixth form located in Knottingley in the City of Wakefield, West Yorkshire, England.^[1]

Previously a community school administered by Wakefield Council, Knottingley High School converted to academy status in April 2012 and was renamed De Lacy Academy. The school is now sponsored by School Partnership Trust Academies,^[2] but continues to coordinate with Wakefield Council for admissions.

De Lacy Academy offers GCSEs and BTECs as programmes of study for pupils, while students in the sixth form have the option to study from a range of A-levels and further BTECs.^[3] Some sixth form courses are offered in conjunction with Garforth Academy.^[4]
