Idsall School is a coeducational secondary school with academy status located in the town of Shifnal in Shropshire, England. Idsall has its own Sixth Form Centre, which offers a range of A Level subjects.

Contents

In November 2022, the school was rated inadequate by Ofsted, who wrote in their report "Too many pupils do not feel safe at Idsall School. Some say that they often experience sexual harassment or discriminatory behaviour from their peers. They are not confident that teachers will deal with their concerns, so they do not report the incidents that occur". [1]

Notable former pupils

Due to its proximity to the FA's former youth academy at Lilleshall, many professional footballers, including several England internationals, attended the school during their time at Lilleshall.
