In April 2011, Rushcliffe School adopted Foundation Status. The school became an academy in August 2012.

In March 2014, Rushcliffe School was graded outstanding in all categories in an Ofsted report.

In May 2018, Phil Crompton retired as Executive Head Teacher and Steve Lewis replaced him overseeing Rushcliffe School and Farnborough Academy, while Damian Painton became Head of School at Rushcliffe.

As of September 2018, Rushcliffe School and the rest of the Trent Academies Group merged with the Spencer Academies Trust.[3]

Identity

The Colours are Red, Black, and Silver are found not only on the uniform but around the building itself.

The School's motto is "Constantia et labore" meaning consistency and effort.

The schools ethos is that "everyone at Rushcliffe school will be given the chance to shine brightly"
