Originally known as Chase Terrace High School, the school acquired specialisms in Design and Technology and in the Visual, Media and Performing Arts[2] and was renamed Chase Terrace Technology College. The school was destroyed by fire in August 2002,[3] and was rebuilt and refurbished by 2004.[4]
Previously a community school administered by Staffordshire County Council, in January 2017 Chase Terrace Technology College converted to academy status and is now sponsored by the Stephen Sutton Multi-Academy Trust.
Chase Terrace Academy offers GCSEs and BTECs as programmes of study for pupils, while students in the sixth form have the option to study from a range of A-levels and further BTECs.
