Previously known as Wakeford Comprehensive School, it gained specialist Sports College status and was renamed Staunton Community Sports College. It then became a foundation school administered by Hampshire County Council. The school converted to academy status on 1 September 2010 and was renamed Havant Academy, becoming the first academy in Hampshire. It is sponsored by the Kemnal Academies Trust.[2]

Havant Academy was rated 'good' in most aspects in its Ofsted report of June 2015.[3] In previous Ofsted reports Havant Academy had been found unsatisfactory; in 2013 Ofsted stated that "The academy is making reasonable progress towards the removal of special measures."[4]

Havant Academy offers GCSEs, BTECs and other vocational courses as programmes of study for pupils.[5]
