Salendine Nook High School is a secondary school in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, England.[1]
The school formally became an academy on 1 February 2012. This followed a resolution to seek academy status by the school governors at governors meeting on 6 July 2011.
School trip
The school had twenty five pupils stranded in the USA in April 2010 after being unable to return home due to the flying ban caused by the Icelandic volcanic ash cloud. The children and four staff went to Florida as part of a physics field trip that was scheduled to last a week but ended up over £15,000 overbudget as they had to extend their stay.[2]
