Cirencester Deer Park School is a secondary school with academy status in Cirencester, Gloucestershire, England. It is at the top of Tetbury Hill, an area which had been the site of a World War II American Army Hospital, in Cirencester Park.
History Founded in 1966, the school combined Cirencester Grammar School with the town's secondary modern school. In 1991 the sixth form was separated into an independent college, Cirencester College, which now shares the same campus as the school. New buildings were built to replace those it had lost to the college.
It became a Technology College in 1995, and a beacon school in 1999. It was converted to an academy in April 2011.
In 2023, the school achieved a "Good" Ofsted report.
