Ormiston Ilkeston Enterprise Academy (OIEA) is a coeducational secondary school with academy status, located on two sites in Ilkeston in the English county of Derbyshire. [1]

OIEA is an amalgamation of two academies operated by the Ormiston Academies Trust. [2] Ormiston Enterprise Academy on Bennerley Avenue was Bennerley Business and Enterprise College, and Bennerley School before that. The Ormiston Ilkeston Academy on King George Avenue was Ilkeston School, and Ilkeston Grammar School before that. [3]

Bennerley Business and Enterprise College and Ilkeston School were community schools directly administered by Derbyshire County Council. However OIEA continues to coordinate with Derbyshire County Council for admissions. The school offers GCSEs and BTECs as programmes of study for pupils. [4]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Bennerley Viaduct</span> Railway viaduct spanning the Erewash Valley

Bennerley Viaduct is a former railway bridge, now a foot and cycle bridge, between Ilkeston, Derbyshire, and Awsworth, Nottinghamshire, in central England. It was completed in 1877 and carried the Great Northern Railway's (GNR) Derbyshire Extension over the River Erewash, which forms the county boundary, and its wide, flat valley. The engineer was Samuel Abbott, who worked under Richard Johnson, the GNR's chief engineer. The site required a bespoke design as the ground would not support a traditional masonry viaduct due to extensive coal mining. The viaduct consists of 16 spans of wrought iron, lattice truss girders, carried on 15 wrought iron piers which are not fixed to the ground but are supported by brick and ashlar bases. The viaduct is 60 feet high, 26 feet wide between the parapets, and over a quarter of a mile long. It was once part of a chain of bridges and embankments carrying the railway for around two miles across the valley but most of its supporting structures were demolished when the line closed in 1968. The only similar surviving bridge in the United Kingdom is Meldon Viaduct in Devon.
