In July 2009, the former, [[Hylton Red House School]] was closed in preparation for the transition of its staff and students to the newly built Red House Academy - an Academy backed by the Leighton Group. The principal is Dr. Thérèse Quincey, who was the headteacher of Hylton Red House School for its final years, under whose leadership the school was removed from special measures by Ofsted and given grades satisfactory to good, and in a later report deemed excellent, and having improved drastically in the past few years. The School continues to build on its achievement with over a 25% of 2010 leavers receiving 5 or more GCSEs. |

In 2007, the school attracted controversy regarding a training programme for [[call centre]] operators. The programme was set up in conjunction with [[EDF Energy]] which has a call centre in the area. For pupils, successful completion of the course provided half of the credit of a [[General Certificate of Secondary Education|GCSE]] examination. Local adults were also able to participate. The assistant headteacher, Helen Elderkin, claimed the programme was successful, providing students with "a taste of a real working environment" and helping to build their confidence.
