Ridgeway Secondary School is a coeducational secondary school located in Astwood Bank (near Redditch) in the English county of Worcestershire.^[1]

Established in 1959, it was a middle school for many years, known as Ridgeway Middle School.^[2] In December 2012 the school converted to academy status^[3] and was renamed Ridgeway Academy. In 2016 the school expanded its age range to admit pupils from the age 11, thereby becoming a secondary school. The school was then renamed Ridgeway Secondary School in September 2020.^[4]
