The Priory City of Lincoln Academy, is a co-educational secondary school within the English Academy programme, in Lincoln, Lincolnshire, England. It is sited on Skellingthorpe Road. It was originally the City School, Lincoln, and moved from its original site on Monks Road, Lincoln in 1968. In 1973 boys were transferred from the former Sincil Secondary Modern School and in 1974 it became a co-educational Comprehensive School and was known as City of Lincoln Community College before becoming an academy in September 2008.[1]The school is part of The Priory Federation of Academies Trust.[2] along with The Priory Witham Academy, The Priory Ruskin Academy and The Priory Academy LSST. It has around 1,000 pupils and admits around 160 pupils a year.[citation needed]

The main part of the School Building was completed in 1975 to designs by Associated Architects of Birmingham and was described in the Buildings of England as having an arresting sawtooth rhythm along the roof, repeated in the window heads and canopy. [3]
