History

In 2007 the school received specialised status in performing arts.

Sandhill View moved into a modern building on the site of the former building in 2002, under the headship of Phil Marshall, who left the school in 2004 to join Monkwearmouth School. The school was run by the Southmoor multi-academy trust with headteacher Mrs J. Maw following the retirement of Richard Bain in 2014. Mrs J. Maw has now retired and Mrs Dodd is in the post.

The school changed its name to Sandhill View Community Arts School in May 2011.[ clarification needed ] In July 2015 the school converted to academy status and was renamed Sandhill View Academy. The school is now part of the Southmoor Academy multi-academy trust, Aspire North East.
