The Kingswinford School is a coeducational secondary school with academy status, located in Kingswinford, West Midlands, England.[1]

It was built just before World War II by Brierley Hill Urban District Council. Subsequent local authority mergers meant that the school was later controlled by the Metropolitan Borough of Dudley, and then became a Foundation School and specialist Science College.

The Kingswinford School converted to academy status on 1 January 2012, and became independent of local authority control. However the school continues to coordinate Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council for admissions.
