The Farnborough Academy (formerly Farnborough School Technology College) is a coeducational secondary school located in the Clifton area of Nottingham in the English county of Nottinghamshire.

The school offers GCSEs as programmes of study for pupils, with a small number of pupils attending Central College Nottingham for vocational courses. It previously held Technology College status as part of the (now defunct) Specialist Schools Programme.

Previously a community school administered by Nottingham City Council, in December 2013 an Ofsted inspection judged Farnborough School Technology College to be 'Inadequate'. The rating meant the school was placed in special measures.^[1] The school converted to academy status in January 2015 and was renamed The Farnborough Academy. It operates as part of the Trent Academies Group.^[2]
