History
editThe school was formed in 2000 after the reduction of the area's three schools to two larger schools (the previous schools being Dane Valley High School, Heathfield High School and Westlands High School). The school gained academy status in September 2012.[6]
In 2013 Eaton Bank Academy announced plans for a multi-purpose sports centre, the sports centre was planned to cost £3 Million. The plans were announced as part of "Congleton's attempt to secure it's Olympic legacy".[7]
In 2019 ministerial approval was given for Eaton Bank Academy to join Fallibroome Trust.[8]
