Previously a community school administered by Sunderland City Council, Southmoor Community School converted to academy status in May 2012 and was renamed Southmoor Academy. However, the school continues to coordinate with Sunderland City Council for admissions.

Southmoor Academy offers GCSEs and Cambridge Nationals as programs of study for pupils, while students in the sixth form have the option to study from a range of A-levels.[2] Students can also take part in the Duke of Edinburgh's Award program.

The Sixth Form at Southmoor Academy

The Sixth Form at Southmoor Academy was built as an extension to the lower school. Since its opening in 2014, it has grown significantly, helping students to join prestigious universities such as Oxford and Cambridge. The Sixth Form features The Hub (A café that is independent from lower school), The Mini Tom (A top of the line of computer suite, with high powered PCs running off the latest edition of Windows) and separate working and social rooms.
